Single women are travelling abroad for IVF as Scots clinics face a shortage of sperm donors.
Women who want to have babies are undergoing their treatments in countries such as Greece and Denmark due to the lack of sperm available in the UK after Covid.
Clinics are urging more men to come forward to help them meet demand as donations are being imported from overseas to meet demand.
The number of single women going through IVF in Scotland soared by around 20% since 2019.
Fiona Wark began thinking seriously about starting a family after the first Covid lockdown.
After having a dream about a little girl with red hair, she decided to go it alone and travelled to Greece for treatment at the age of 36.
She is now mum to nine-month-old Maura.
