Women in Britain: Are you planning to have a child of your own with the help of fertility treatment?

The number of single British women undergoing fertility treatment has more than tripled in ten years, according to a report from the Human Fertilization and Embryology Authority (HFEA).

A total of 4,800 women without a partner underwent treatment with in vitro fertilization (IVF) or donor insemination (DI) in 2022. This represents an increase of 243% compared to the 1,400 single women who received fertility treatment in 2012.

The number of women in same-sex couples has also more than doubled, while the number of women in heterosexual couples receiving treatment has also increased, but only slightly from 45,300 to 47,000.

If you are planning to give birth alone or with someone else via IVF, we would like to hear about your experience. You can contact us by completing the form below.
