The Arizona Center for Fertility Studies supports individuals and families who choose to pursue adoption rather than to start or continue the fertility treatment process.
For some families, adoption is the right choice. Many children in this country and around the world are abandoned or alone and desire a loving, safe, and supportive home where they can thrive. One of our patients shared her personal perspective on adoption with us:
"After years of battling infertility, the ache for a child became so overwhelming. We knew that we were reaching our limits - physically, emotionally, and financially. Donor eggs or adoption were our final options. After much prayer, our hearts were led to adoption. It was heart-wrenching to learn of the number of children looking for a forever family. After being so hopeless through years of infertility, we finally became hopeful that there was a child out there that we were meant to have and love. Once we made the decision, we never looked back. We feel extremely blessed to have our precious daughter. We can't imagine life without her...she completes our family."
