Spain has extended the availability of free IVF treatment to single women and the LGBT+ community. Health minister Carolina Darias signed an order on Friday granting more women access to medically assisted reproduction in Spain’s public health system.

The move is also part of the Socialist-led Spanish government’s drive for equality, which has also seen a record number of women appointed to the Cabinet.
