In a world where family-building paths continue to evolve, Surrogacy stands out as a compassionate and effective option for those facing infertility, same-sex couples, singles, or anyone dreaming of parenthood. Agencies like Conceptual Options, a trusted leader since 1999, make these journeys possible with personalized, ethical support.
Headquartered in San Diego, California, Conceptual Options specializes in gestational surrogacy and egg donation. They guide Intended Parents through every step—from matching with surrogates and donors to legal coordination, medical oversight, and emotional care. Their progressive approach shines in California’s surrogacy-friendly laws, which support diverse families, including single parents and the LGB community. With a high-quality egg donor database and a focus on compassionate service, the agency has helped hundreds realize their family dreams.
A compelling real-world example highlights surrogacy’s transformative power. Olympic figure skater Alysa Liu, raised by her single father Arthur Liu, was born through surrogacy using anonymous egg donors. Arthur, who welcomed five children (Alysa, her sister, and triplets) via two surrogates, chose this path intentionally as a single man in his 40s. Living in surrogacy-progressive California, he built a loving, multicultural family that supported Alysa’s path to gold-medal success and global recognition.
Recent coverage, such as in Slate (February 2026), spotlights Arthur’s story amid growing visibility for single fathers by choice. While traditional single-father households often stem from divorce or widowhood, intentional solo parenthood via surrogacy remains rarer but increasingly viable—thanks to supportive agencies and legal frameworks in states like California.
Conceptual Options aligns perfectly with this shift, offering comprehensive services that prioritize everyone’s well-being. For Intended Parents, they provide seamless matching and full journey support. For surrogates, competitive compensation, medical coverage, and ongoing guidance create rewarding experiences.
Stories like the Lius show surrogacy isn’t just about biology—it’s about love, determination, and opportunity. Whether you’re an Intended Parent exploring options or considering surrogacy, agencies like Conceptual Options offer the expertise and empathy needed to build extraordinary families.
