According to the Spanish Fertility Society, some 1,500 women decide each year to become single mothers. This is one of the new family models that have arisen with the incorporation of women into the workplace. These are women without a partner who decide to have children, normally through adoption or assisted reproduction processes.
According to a study by the University of Seville, they are women between 35 and 45 years of age, highly qualified, employed by others and with economic and job security. They tend to be very self-confident and able to reconcile their family and professional lives.
Profile of mothers
Single mothers by choice who attend an Assisted Reproduction clinic are emotionally mature women who decide to become mothers with full awareness and conviction. They have reached a vital point in which, after having achieved many goals, they want to live the experience of being mothers, even if they do not have a partner. In addition, they are independent in every way and are not afraid to face motherhood alone. They do not have any taboos when it comes to communicating their decision to their closest environment.
Assisted Reproduction Treatments
To help women who want to become mothers, Zygos has anonymous donor sperm banks and all kinds of assisted reproduction techniques such as artificial insemination with donor sperm or in vitro fertilization.
For an effective treatment, the case of each woman is studied and a certain treatment is recommended, always from realism and making it clear beforehand that the success of these processes depends on various factors such as age or health status. In any case, if pregnancy is not achieved on the first attempt, it is recommended to repeat the cycle.
