Advantages & Disadvantages of Surrogacy
Infertility, old age or the absence of a partner can hinder the growing desire to become a parent. Surrogacy involves a woman agreeing to carry a child and give birth for another person or couple. The surrogate mother donates her egg and gives birth to the child as the genetic mother in a traditional surrogate arrangement. The surrogate mother is implanted with a fertilized egg during a gestational surrogacy and has no biological ties to the baby. Have a question? Get an answer from a doctor now!
