Surrogacy is giving birth to a baby by a woman for another woman or couple under an agreement or arrangement. Surrogacy arrangements are sought after by the couples who wish to start with a family but have some medical complications or physical limitations (as in the case of a gay couple), which do not allow them to carry the pregnancy. Surrogacy is mainly of two types: gestational and traditional surrogacy. Gestational surrogacy takes place when an embryo created by In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) technology is implanted in a surrogate. This child is genetically not related to the surrogate because it is either the intended mother’s eggs combined with the intended father’s sperms or the parents’ eggs or sperms combined with the donor’s sperms or eggs.<\/p>\n
Gestational surrogacy services are the most suitable way to fulfill someone’s dream of completing one’s family. The agencies that take this responsibility upon their shoulders must be experienced and knowledgeable in the field.<\/p>\n
Some of The Things That Need To Be Understood are:<\/b><\/p>\n They need to understand and empathize with their clients to build a relationship of trust. These agencies are a one stop solution to the clients’ medical, legal, and, to some extent, emotional issues related to gestational surrogacy.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n The good agencies always have a database ready of the potential surrogates they have approved once they have passed the agency’s eligibility criteria, which may include the age limit (21-42), psychological, social, and academic screening.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n The agency also ensures that both the parties are counseled and informed of the procedure to gauge the complexities involved in the forthcoming process and mentally and emotionally prepare themselves for the same. It is a must for any reputed agency that it makes its clients and the surrogate aware of the potential risks involved in the procedure.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n\n
