The intended parents (those who want a child but can't conceive on their own) typically start by consulting a fertility specialist or a surrogacy agency to understand their options.
Once the decision to pursue surrogacy is made, the intended parents are usually screened for medical and psychological fitness. Then, they are matched with a surrogate who meets their criteria. The surrogate is usually screened as well to ensure she's physically and emotionally capable of carrying a pregnancy.
Both parties, the intended parents and the surrogate, enter into a legal agreement that outlines their rights, responsibilities, and expectations during the surrogacy process. This agreement covers aspects like compensation, medical expenses, and what happens in case of unforeseen circumstances.
The individuals or couple who commission the surrogacy arrangement because they cannot conceive or carry a pregnancy to term.
The woman who carries and delivers the baby on behalf of the intended parents. Egg Donor: A woman who provides eggs for the IVF process if the intended mother is unable to do so.
A process where eggs are fertilized with sperm outside the body and resulting embryos are transferred to the uterus.
A legally binding contract outlining the rights and responsibilities of the parties involved in the surrogacy arrangement.
Medical care and monitoring provided to the surrogate during pregnancy to ensure the health of both the surrogate and the baby.
The legal recognition of the intended parents as the legal parents of the child born through surrogacy.
