Gestational Surrogacy

• Welcome to Matrika Medicare

Gestational Surrogacy Surrogacy is of two types
Traditional and Gestational. In Gestational
Surrogacy a woman agrees to bear the child of a
couple who are unable to start their family or
have a genetic child due to medical complications
under a legal agreement. In this case the woman
carries the child to its term and hands over the
child to the biological parents. Such women are
known as Gestational carriers or birth mothers.
The surrogate woman has no biological connection
with the baby. Surrogacy is an ART (Artificial
Reproductive Technique) procedure and a preferred
path towards parenthood for infertile couples who
are generally referred to as intended or
commissioning parents.

How to avail Surrogacy? Once a couple is advised
by the IVF specialist to go for Surrogacy due to
various complications, the couple needs to look
for a good Surrogacy service provider who will
provide them with all the information required
for Surrogacy and arrange for the Surrogate as
per the demand. Not only that, it will hold the
hands of the couple for the next one or one and
half years till the reality of parenthood happens
in the horizon. Matrika Medicare is one such
organisation based in Delhi/NCR which will give
you the best service as it is considered to be
the best Surrogacy clinic in India.
What to expect from the Surrogacy clinic? Once
contacted, the Surrogacy clinic will hold
meetings with the intending parents to understand
their requirement. They might have two/ three
sessions to get a clear picture of the couples
preference. Then they will check their database
and send the profiles to the couples. Once the
couple selects the profile of the pre screened
Surrogate/ Surrogates, an interview is arranged
between them. It can be done electronically or
face to face. The surrogates are also encouraged
by the agency to ask freely. No wonder Matrika
Medicare is rated as the best Surrogacy centre in
India.

The Journey The road to Surrogacy is not easy
and is a complex and lengthy procedure. It
sometimes causes anxiety and emotional stress
also. Both the couples and the Surrogate is
counselled individually by the clinic. The
Surrogate undergoes assessment by a clinical
Psychologist for potential emotional issue. Once
Surrogacy contract gets finalised following all
the legalities depending on the law of the land,
the treatment starts. The Surrogate is given
medications for endometrial preparation which
takes about 12 to 15 days. When the endometrial
thickness reaches the optimum level, a blood test
is performed to check for serum Progesterone. On
confirming the count injection Progesterone
starts and generally day 5th is considered to be
the embryo transfer day. Day 1 is taken as zero.
After 14/15 days of ET, HCG is tested in the
blood to confirm pregnancy. The couple is
intimated and the Surrogate is monitored 24x7 by
medical experts and the team. With confirmation
of the heartbeat of the foetus after two weeks,
the Surrogate mother is referred to a
Gynaecologist for further check up. The surrogate
will undergo routine blood tests and scan and all
the reports are sent to the couple. The
commissioned parents note the developments of the
foetus with great curiosity and pleasure. In the
run up to delivery if any complication arises
like gestational diabetes or any other illness
the couple is duly informed. In this period, the
Surrogacy clinic emphasises on the food and
nutrition of the Surrogate mothers. A team of
social workers and coordinators monitor this
round the clock and ensures that they get protein
rich diet. The part of medication is well taken
care of with nurses monitoring all the parameters.

We at Matrika Medicare walk an extra mile to
provide wholesome food and made provisions of
their entertainment. Their family is also helped
by us for financial assistance, relocation,
admission to school etc. It is our constant
endeavour to see that the Surrogate mother
complies with the contract. Accepting payments
from intending couples for various stages of this
journey enable us to take care of the Surrogates
demand while keeping the intended parents in the
loop along the way. We are the only Surrogacy
clinic in India, who can boast such a robust
infrastructure in this field. In our team, the
Gynaecologists prefer normal delivery and a
tentative period is notified to the parents so
that they can plan. However, to avoid risks and
depending upon the condition, sometimes a c
section is also performed.
With the D day advancing the intended couples are
excited to hold their bundle of joy after a long
and stressful struggle for Parenthood and anxious
too. Once the delivery is over and the baby is
handed over to the family, we at Matrika Medicare
ensure that the Surrogate mother is attended
fully. Her recuperation, emotional, financial
assistance and rehabilitation is taken care of.
