DALLAS, Dec. 2, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- A Dallas Woman who faced her own infertility and pregnancy struggles, has launched the Embryo Adoption Project, a brand new platform to make parenthood possible for other families and give the joy of pregnancy. It is an online dating style platform for adoptive couples and donor families helps eliminate barriers of becoming a family and connects families in a safe environment.
Dr Rebecca Westbrook came up with the idea of the Embryo Adoption Project when she was exploring alternative options to motherhood after her struggles with infertility.
The Embryo Adoption Project became the first of its kind in the Dallas community, a new alternative to create a family through educating couples and facilitating embryo adoption..
Dallas native, Dr Rebecca Westrook had a bigger national vision for the platform after being gifted with twelve embryos and having two beautiful daughters. Only later on Dr Rebecca Westbrook and her husband discovered that it was much harder than expected to find an adoptive couple to adopt their nine remaining embryos. With one in eight couples suffering from infertility and not being able to fulfill the dream of having a baby has motivated Dr Westrook to launch The Embryo Adoption Project.
Dr Westbrook recalls, "We wanted to give a gift of life and share our nine embryos with another couple. After trying to network through social media connections, we have discovered that many did not know embryo adoption was even an option. Our project was born because of the need to educate about embryo adoption and provide a platform for donor families and adoptive couples to meet in a safe and secure environment.
"One of the advantages of embryo adoption is that it is 86% less expensive than a traditional adoption agency and 80% less expensive than one cycle of IVF treatments. The infertility treatments are expensive and it got me thinking about a new option because of the price tag of one round of IVF treatment alone", shares Dr Rebecca Westbrook.
For many moms like Dr Westbrook embryo adoption is one step closer to starting a family
The networking website she has created allows couples that have finished IVF and have remaining embryos to connect with adoptive couples.
She added, "Similar to a dating website, donor and adoptive couples can fill out a profile and then connect through an internal email system. This allows members to keep their identity private. Once a donor and adoptive couple agree on adoption, they move off site and can continue the adoption process by working with a private attorney. The process is easy and very rewarding".
