As a same-sex couple, we were thrilled about the prospect of starting a family. However, after attending a costly fertility consultation that outlined numerous tests and procedures, I felt overwhelmed. Being young and healthy, I questioned the necessity of many of these tests. After conducting thorough research and finding a suitable donor, we decided to try at-home insemination with MakeAmom.
In the month leading up to our attempt, I diligently tracked my ovulation using various methods, including ovulation apps and test strips, to gain a better understanding of my cycle. The entire MakeAmom process was incredibly straightforward! The syringe design made insertion easy and virtually painless—just relax and insert it like you would a tampon. To our amazement, just five weeks later, we discovered that it had worked after only one attempt! We are so grateful for this experience and highly recommend MakeAmom!
