Frequently Asked Questions
What is gestational surrogacy?
Gestational surrogacy is an arrangement in which a woman carries a pregnancy for intended parents using an embryo created through in vitro fertilization. The surrogate does not share a genetic connection to the child.
Who can become a surrogate?
Surrogates must meet specific medical and lifestyle requirements, including having at least one prior healthy pregnancy, maintaining stable living conditions, and passing medical and psychological screening.
Who can become an intended parent?
We work with married couples, single individuals, and members of the LGBTQ+ community. Intended parents must demonstrate readiness to move forward medically, financially, and legally with a surrogacy journey.
How are surrogates screened?
All surrogate candidates undergo medical record review, background screening, psychological evaluation, and confirmation of prior healthy pregnancies before being approved to match.
How long does the surrogacy process take?
Most journeys take approximately 12 to 18 months from agency agreement to delivery. Timelines vary depending on matching, medical clearance, and embryo transfer outcomes.
How are matches made?
Matching is based on compatibility, shared expectations, communication style, and lifestyle alignment. Both parties have the opportunity to connect before moving forward.
What are the costs involved in surrogacy?
Costs vary by case but typically include surrogate compensation, medical expenses, legal services, escrow management, insurance, and agency coordination. A detailed cost breakdown will be provided.
What compensation do surrogates receive?
Surrogate compensation varies based on experience and individual circumstances. Compensation packages are discussed transparently before matching and outlined in legal agreements.
What happens if a transfer is unsuccessful?
If an embryo transfer is unsuccessful, the medical team will evaluate next steps. Many journeys require more than one transfer. Support and coordination continue throughout the process.
