When Should You Consider Gestational Surrogacy
Process
2
Gestational surrogacy is a procedure where a
woman chooses to carry and give birth to a baby
for another woman. The woman carrying the baby is
sometimes called to as the gestational carrier or
surrogate. The intended parents are the ones who
will receive this baby after it is born. They are
usually very involved with the surrogate,
starting with the pregnancy to attending all the
medical appointments and even being present at
the childs birth.
In gestational surrogacy, the baby does not share
his or her genes with the gestational surrogate.
The egg and sperm are gathered from the mother
and father respectively, fertilized in an IVF lab
and then implanted into the gestational
surrogates womb. Gestational pregnancy offers
many couples and individuals the chance to
experience parenthood, especially when other
avenues are not available or possible.

With that being said, when would someone consider
gestational pregnancy? A Woman with a
Complicated Medical Condition There are certain
medical situations that makes pregnancy unsafe
for the mother and/her baby. To treat this
medical condition, the woman might have to take
special medications which can make conception
dangerous or difficult. Some medications may harm
her fetus. For instance, a woman with cancer or
heart condition may be advised by her physician
to explore alternative means of having a baby.
It can be devastating to a woman to learn that
she is unable to give birth to her own child
because of her medical condition. However, once
she has accepted the reality of her situation,
many women begin to see surrogacy as a viable
option.

Gay Couples Homosexual couples who for obvious
reasons are unable to get pregnant can pursue
surrogacy. One partner can provide his or her
genes to a child, meaning that there will be a
biological link between the child and one of the
parents. Infertility This is the most
difficult road to surrogacy. People in this
category are usually couples who have been trying
to conceive for many years. Theyve likely
experienced several miscarriages and have shelled
out lots of money on IVF treatments without much
success. Medical conditions such as Primary
Ovarian Insufficiency, advanced maternal age,
uterine fibroids and polycystic ovarian syndrome
are all roadblocks to fertility. There are some
cases where the doctor cannot figure out why the
couple is infertile.

However, there is a light at the end of this
tunnel in the form of gestational surrogacy. The
path to gestational surrogacy results in a child
that shares some if not complete, biological
connection with the intended parents.
Gestational surrogacy gives many people the
chance to experience the joys of parenthood which
otherwise could not have by other means.
