Heads turn when An Hui and Ye Jianbin walk down a street in the Chinese city of Shenzhen with their triplets, who were conceived with help from a human egg donor and a surrogate mother. People are mostly curious about their unconventional family, said An, adding that it was not always the case in China where gay couples have long battled conservative Confucian values. The two men wanted a family and began exploring the option of in vitro fertilisation (IVF), with help from a human egg donor and a surrogate mother. In 2014, a Thai woman gave birth in Hong Kong to three boys Ð An Zhizhong, An Zhiya and An Zhifei - who were conceived using human eggs provided by a German fashion model, according to An.
