Becoming a biological father while living with HIV is absolutely possible.
Thanks to modern medicine and advanced reproductive technologies, men who are HIV positive can safely pursue their dream of parenthood through surrogacy.
Over 4,000 successful assisted reproduction cases have been reported worldwide using sperm from HIV-positive men, with no cases of transmission to either the surrogate or the baby.
This remarkable track record demonstrates that, with the proper medical care, becoming a parent is a safe and achievable goal.
At Gaia Fertility, we know that living with HIV brings unique challenges and requires ongoing medical attention.
But with today’s effective treatments and state-of-the-art fertility clinics, HIV-positive individuals can enjoy healthy lives and fulfill their dream of having a child through surrogacy.
Recent scientific breakthroughs have opened the door even wider, offering reassurance and hope to intended parents. With the proper guidance and professional support, parenthood is no longer just a dream, it is a real possibility.
At Gaia Fertility, we understand that living with HIV presents unique challenges and requires ongoing medical attention, as well as lifestyle adjustments.
Yet, thanks to advanced medical facilities and effective treatment options, it has become far easier for HIV-positive individuals and couples to live healthy lives and achieve their dream of parenthood through surrogacy.
Recent scientific progress has brought great hope and relief to many intended parents living with HIV.
Today, parenthood through surrogacy is no longer a distant possibility; it is a safe and realistic path forward.
As part of this process, IVF is required to create embryos for transfer. While many fertility clinics around the world decline to work with HIV-positive individuals or couples, Gaia Fertility is different.
Based in Cyprus, we proudly stand among the few agencies that specialize in surrogacy for HIV-positive couples.
We are committed to providing safe, suitable, and cost-effective solutions, ensuring your journey to parenthood is as supportive and straightforward as possible.
To ensure the sperm used in the surrogacy process is entirely safe and non-infectious, three important medical criteria must be met:
Step 1: The intended parent must be fully adherent to his HIV treatment regimen.
Step 2: The viral load must be fully suppressed for at least six consecutive months.
Step 3: The intended parent must be free from any active sexually transmitted infections (STIs).
When these criteria are followed, the process of using sperm from an HIV-positive intended parent becomes safe, effective, and reliable, allowing intended parents to move forward with confidence in their surrogacy journey.
At Gaia Fertility, we understand that surrogacy options for HIV-positive couples can sometimes feel limited or take a little longer.
However, with our years of experience and deep expertise in this field, we provide safe, reliable, and practical solutions for surrogacy with HIV, whether in Colombia, Cyprus, or other destinations where we operate.
In many cases, when the male partner is HIV positive but the female partner is not, it is still possible to conceive a healthy child with very minimal risk.
Modern medicine and strict medical protocols make this journey both safe and achievable.
It is essential to note, however, that requirements may vary depending on the country where the process is conducted.
For example, surrogacy for HIV in Cyprus may involve a different set of medical tests and guidelines than surrogacy in Colombia.
That is why having the right agency by your side makes all the difference, ensuring your path to parenthood is smooth, secure, and supported every step of the way.
One of the most common and effective techniques used before IVF for HIV-positive intended parents is sperm washing.
This advanced medical procedure is designed to separate healthy sperm cells from the seminal fluid, which may contain traces of HIV.
Since HIV is found primarily in the seminal fluid of HIV-positive men, removing this fluid significantly reduces the risk of transmission.
Once separated, only the purified sperm are used to fertilize the egg.
This not only protects the surrogate from exposure but also minimizes the possibility of vertical transmission, the passing of the virus from mother to child.
Thanks to modern medicine and strict protocols, HIV-positive couples can safely and confidently pursue their dream of parenthood.
At Gaia Fertility, we work closely with leading IVF centers and medical experts who specialize in risk-free surrogacy for HIV-positive patients.

Yes. With advanced techniques like sperm washing, strict medical protocols, and modern IVF treatments, surrogacy for HIV-positive intended parents is safe for both the surrogate and the baby.
Medical advancements now allow HIV-positive individuals to become parents safely through surrogacy.
One of the key techniques is sperm washing, which separates healthy sperm cells from seminal fluid where the virus may be present.
This ensures that only clean, healthy sperm are used in the IVF process.
In addition, strict medical protocols and continuous monitoring are in place to protect the health of the surrogate and ensure the safety of the pregnancy.
IVF technology further reduces risks by creating embryos in a controlled laboratory environment before transfer.
At Gaia Fertility, we specialize in supporting HIV-positive intended parents with care and expertise.
Our programs combine advanced science, experienced medical teams, and compassionate support, making the journey to parenthood both safe and successful.
No. With proper medical protocols like sperm washing and expert fertility care, the risk of HIV transmission to the baby is virtually zero.
One of the greatest concerns for HIV-positive intended parents is the possibility of transmitting the virus to their child.
However, when advanced techniques such as sperm washing are used, the risk is eliminated to almost zero.
In this process, healthy sperm cells are separated from the seminal fluid, where the virus may be present.
Only the cleaned, virus-free sperm are used in IVF, ensuring the embryo develops without exposure to HIV.
Worldwide, thousands of healthy babies have been born to HIV-positive fathers through assisted reproductive technologies.
With careful medical oversight and strict adherence to protocols, families can confidently pursue surrogacy without fear of transmission.
No. Regulations and medical protocols differ across countries, so surrogacy for HIV-positive intended parents is only possible in select destinations.
Gaia Fertility provides guidance to ensure safety and compliance wherever the process takes place.
Not all countries allow or are equipped to support surrogacy programs for HIV-positive intended parents.
Laws, medical infrastructure, and ethical standards vary, meaning that while some destinations offer clear pathways, others may restrict or prohibit the process altogether.
For example, the requirements in Cyprus may differ significantly from those in Colombia or other countries.
This makes it essential for families to understand local regulations and ensure they work with clinics that have the right expertise and safety protocols.
At Gaia Fertility, we provide detailed guidance based on your chosen destination.
Our team ensures that every medical and legal step is handled correctly, so you can move forward confidently, knowing that the process is both safe and fully compliant.
Yes. When only the male partner is HIV positive, IVF combined with advanced medical techniques such as sperm washing allows couples to conceive safely without the risk of transmission.
In cases where the male partner is HIV positive, assisted reproductive technology offers a safe and reliable way to achieve parenthood.
The key technique is sperm washing, which separates healthy sperm cells from seminal fluid where the virus may be present.
Once the healthy sperm are isolated, they are used in the IVF process to fertilize the female partner’s eggs (or donor eggs if needed).
This ensures that embryos are free from HIV before transfer to the uterus.
At Gaia Fertility, we specialize in supporting couples where only the male partner is HIV positive.
With expert protocols, careful monitoring, and compassionate care, we help families conceive safely and confidently while eliminating the risk of transmission.
Gaia Fertility supports HIV-positive intended parents with personalized guidance, medical expertise, and full care from screening to birth, ensuring a safe and smooth journey to parenthood.
