Surrogacy

What is Surrogacy?

Surrogacy involves a woman (the surrogate) carrying and delivering a baby for another person or couple who cannot conceive or carry a pregnancy to term. The surrogate may either be the biological mother of the child (in traditional surrogacy) or carry a pregnancy created with the intended mother’s or donor’s egg and the intended father’s or donor’s sperm (in gestational surrogacy).

Types of Surrogacy

• Gestational Surrogacy: The most common form of surrogacy, where the surrogate mother carries an embryo created via In Vitro Fertilization (IVF). The surrogate has no genetic relation to the child.
• Traditional Surrogacy: The surrogate is also the egg donor, and the child is genetically related to her. This type is rarely used today due to legal and ethical considerations.

The Surrogacy Process at Padmasri Hospital

1. Initial Consultation and Assessment: We begin with a detailed consultation to understand your medical and personal needs, including fertility assessments for both the intended parents and the surrogate.
2. Surrogate Selection: Our team helps identify a suitable surrogate, who is carefully screened for physical and psychological health to ensure a safe pregnancy.
3. Legal Framework: We guide you through the legal process to ensure the surrogacy agreement is clear, legally binding, and respectful of all parties’ rights.
4. Fertility Treatments: IVF is often used to create embryos with the intended parents’ eggs and sperm, which are then implanted in the surrogate’s uterus.
5. Pregnancy Monitoring: Throughout the pregnancy, our fertility and obstetrics specialists provide regular check-ups to monitor the surrogate’s health and the development of the pregnancy.
6. Delivery and Post-Birth Care: Our team ensures that the delivery process is managed safely and that the parents can take custody of the newborn. We also provide emotional support and counseling.

Why Choose Surrogacy?

Surrogacy may be an ideal option for various reasons, including:

• Medical Inability to Carry a Pregnancy: For women who are unable to carry a pregnancy due to conditions like uterine abnormalities, severe endometriosis, or other health issues.
• Recurrent Pregnancy Loss: For couples who have experienced multiple miscarriages or failed IVF attempts.
• Same-Sex Couples or Single Parents: Surrogacy provides a pathway for same-sex couples or individuals to experience parenthood.
• Advanced Maternal Age: Women of advanced age who may face difficulties with pregnancy can turn to surrogacy as a viable option.

The Benefits of Surrogacy

• A Path to Parenthood for All: Surrogacy provides a way for individuals or couples, including same-sex couples or single parents, to have a child with a genetic connection (if using their own eggs and sperm).
