There’s Always a Way to Fulfill your Dream: ROPA Method in Colombia

July 2, 2025 0Comments

In the pursuit of motherhood, many couples turn to assisted reproduction methods to fulfill their dream of having a child. One of these methods, which has gained popularity in Colombia and around the world, is the ROPA Method.

The ROPA Method, which stands for “Reception of Oocytes from the Partner” or “Double Motherhood,” is an assisted reproduction procedure specially designed for female couples who wish to conceive a child using the genetic material of both. In Colombia, as elsewhere, this technique has become an increasingly popular option for same-sex couples and those in which one of the women cannot contribute her eggs for conception.

The ROPA Method allows both women to actively participate in the gestation process. To explain it better, we will assume that Laura and Manuela are a couple. To begin the process, Laura provides the eggs that will be fertilized through an assisted reproduction treatment such as in vitro fertilization with sperm from a donor. Then, the resulting embryo is transferred to Manuela’s uterus, who will carry out the pregnancy. This division of roles provides a shared motherhood experience that strengthens the emotional bonds between the two women.

In addition, the ROPA Method offers couples the opportunity to pass on their genetic makeup to their child, which can be a crucial aspect for many people. Genetics plays an important role in a child’s health and well-being, and for some couples, it is essential that their child share their genetic heritage.

Genetics plays a significant role in the ROPA Method, as one of the partners provides the eggs that will contain half of their child’s genetic information. This means that the child will have a biological connection with one of the mothers. Careful selection of the sperm donor also allows couples to influence certain genetic traits, such as blood type and physical appearance, according to their preferences.

It is important to note that, although the child will share genetics with one of the mothers, both women will play equally important roles in their life and upbringing. The importance of genetics should not detract from the mother-child relationship that will develop.

As with any medical procedure, the ROPA Method carries certain risks. Some of these risks may include complications during the ovarian stimulation process, the egg retrieval procedure, or the embryo transfer. There is also the risk that the treatment will not be successful on the first attempt.

It is essential that couples considering the ROPA Method are informed about the possible risks and seek specialized medical attention at trusted assisted reproduction centers. An experienced medical team can help minimize risks and increase the chances of success.
