FIRST WHAT IS SURROGACY:

Surrogacy involves a woman agreeing to carry a baby for someone else. After the baby is born, the birth mother gives custody and guardianship to the intended parent or parents. Surrogacy has complex legal and medical steps that must be met.

It’s important to be aware of the process, seek professional advice and build supportive networks.

Who is involved?

A woman who agrees to carry and give birth to a baby for another person is a surrogate or birth mother. Parents of a baby born through a surrogacy arrangement are known as intended or commissioning parents.

Many other people need to be considered before taking this life-changing step, including the partner and children of a surrogate mother, the child itself and any other children of the intended parent(s).

Infertility

Infertility is considered one of the main problems of the 21st century. After all, about 40% of all married couples have encountered problems during the natural conception of a child.

It is sure that this disease does not select people and it occurs quite often in celebrities. This is due to their job: stress, constant exhaustion, travel, night work, poor diet, minor illnesses that they do not treat, etc. Therefore, they also often turn to assisted reproductive technologies, especially surrogacy. Some have resorted to it after years of treatment, others for lack of time.
