Top Reasons To Consider a Surrogate Mother - Physician's Surrogacy

1. Top Reasons to Use a Surrogate

2. THERE ARE TWO TYPES OF SURROGACY 1. Traditional surrogacy 2. Gestational Surrogacy

3. Types of Surrogacy Traditional Surrogacy In this case, the surrogate provides the egg. The sperm is usually provided by the intended father. Using IUI, the egg is artificially inseminated. Since the surrogate is using their own egg, they will be genetically related to the child. This can cause a lot of emotional stress for some intended parents, which is why traditional surrogacy is the less preferred approach.

4. Types of Surrogacy Gestational Surrogacy In this scenario, the child is not biologically related to the surrogate. The embryo is created via in vitro fertilization (IVF) using the eggs of the intended mother and the sperm of intended father. The embryo is then transferred to the surrogate to carry out the pregnancy. A surrogate can be a close friend or family member or obtained through a surrogacy agency.

5. Top Six Reasons to Consider a Surrogate Mother 1. Same-Sex Couples Many same-sex couples are eager to expand their families, and surrogacy is the only option for them. Men will have to use donated eggs and the services of a surrogate mother to start a family. At Physician’s Surrogacy, we are delighted to report that surrogacy is rapidly gaining widespread public acceptance, especially for LGBTQ couples. 2. Age By the age of 30, fertility starts to decline, since the number and quality of eggs decrease as women gets older. While in men, the quality of the sperm declines drastically when they reach their 40s. By the age of 45, fertility declines so much that getting pregnant naturally is unlikely. Also, women who get pregnant in their late 30s have a higher risk of complications, which may affect their health and the health of the baby.

Some individuals may not have found the right partner to start a family with, so surrogacy is a viable option. At Physician’s Surrogacy, we believe that everyone has a right to build families in a way that supports their personal choices. 4. Lack of a Uterus It is possible that a woman wishing to start her family may not have a uterus. This may occur due to Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser (MRKH) syndrome, a rare genetic malformation, or the woman may have had her uterus removed. MRKH is a condition that causes the vagina to be underdeveloped or absent, although genitalia functions normally. Affected women do not have menstrual period and cannot carry pregnancy herself.

Uterine Structural Problem Less severe than the above, a woman can have an inherent condition or uterine defect, which makes conception of a baby difficult. It is very unlikely that a child could be carried to term. It is also possible that a malformation in the uterus may not have impact in conception but can make it impossible for a woman to carry the child to term. 6. Other Medical Conditions Certain medical conditions don’t directly affect a woman’s physical ability to conceive but can have an impact on her ability to carry a child to term. Conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, or kidney issues can turn pregnancy into a life-threatening event for the mother and child. Also, certain medicines being taken may put an unborn child’s health at risk.
