Gestational Surrogacy: enlivening hope to become a parent

Inability to conceive a baby is forcing troubled couples to look for innovative scientific techniques to fulfill their dream of building a family. Among all latest pregnancy techniques, Gestational Surrogacy has become a viable option for infertile couples. Also known as In-Vitro Fertilization (IVF), where surrogate is made to be pregnant via embryo transfer, the technique comprises transfer of fertilized eggs from another woman into the surrogate’s uterus.


In cases where the wannabe parents can't produce the necessary sperm or eggs, help from a donor can also be sought for.


Generally, people believe that gestational surrogacy is an expensive and complex medical process. However, the process offers a positive chance for parents to extend their family.
