Uterine Surrogacy
About it
Known as surrogacy or gestational surrogacy
Uterine Surrogacy offers:
Provides a pathway to parenthood for individuals or couples who cannot carry a pregnancy themselves.
Recommended option for:
For individuals or couples facing barriers to carrying a pregnancy. This includes those with medical conditions such as uterine abnormalities, the absence of a uterus, or health risks that make pregnancy unsafe. It is also ideal for same-sex male couples wishing to have a biological child and individuals or couples who have experienced recurrent pregnancy loss or failed fertility treatments.
How it works?
Starts with selecting and thoroughly screening a surrogate to ensure she is healthy and prepared for the process. Next, embryos are created through in-vitro fertilization (IVF) using the genetic material of the intended parents or, if needed, donors. Once ready, the embryo is transferred to the surrogate’s uterus, where she carries the pregnancy under medical supervision. After the baby is born, legal processes ensure the intended parents assume full parental rights and responsibilities.
What Does the Uterine Surrogacy Involve?
1. In Vitro Fertilization (IVF)
Eggs and sperm, which come from the intended parents or donors, are fertilized in the lab using in vitro fertilization (IVF) techniques, creating embryos. These embryos are developed in a controlled environment until they are ready for implantation.
2. Embryo Transfer
The most viable embryo is transferred to the uterus of the surrogate mother or gestational carrier, who will carry the pregnancy to term and deliver the baby for the intended parents.
“Uterine surrogacy offers a shared journey to parenthood, uniting intended parents and surrogates in creating life.”
Benefits
It allows intended parents to have a biological connection to their child when using their own eggs and/or sperm.
Provides a path to parenthood for individuals or couples unable to carry a pregnancy due to medical, anatomical, or other reasons, including same-sex male couples.
When combined with IVF, surrogacy offers high success rates, especially with healthy embryos and a suitable surrogate.
