Allow same sex male couple to have IVF on the NHS just like everyone else

Closed 46 signatures

What the petition asks

Under the NHS a straight couple, lesbian couple and other couples are allowed to have IVF paid for by the NHS but a gay male couple isn’t allowed to have IVF funded for by the NHS.
Me and my husband have been wanting to do IVF but we would have to pay over £5000 to have a child.
But if we where single or in a straight/lesbian relationship we cannot get any help from the NHS. Please help change this by signing this petition.
