At FERTY9, we strictly adhere to the laws of India, which permit only Altruistic Surrogacy. This is a selfless and compassionate approach where a surrogate, typically a close relative or friend of the intended parents, agrees to help without any financial compensation beyond the coverage of medical expenses and a comprehensive insurance policy. Our process is designed to ensure care, transparency, and legal compliance for everyone involved.
- Initial Consultation: Meet with our fertility specialists and support team. We will discuss your needs, explain the altruistic surrogacy framework in detail, and create a personalized plan for your journey to parenthood.
- Surrogate Screening and Evaluation: Once an altruistic surrogate has been identified, she undergoes a comprehensive screening process to ensure she is physically and emotionally prepared for the journey. This includes a full medical and gynaecological evaluation, blood tests for infectious diseases, and psychological counselling and assessment.
- Legal Agreements: Our legal experts will help you and your surrogate draft and sign a comprehensive, legally binding surrogacy agreement. This document outlines the rights and responsibilities of all parties and ensures the entire process complies with the guidelines of the Surrogacy (Regulation) Act.
- Embryo Creation and Transfer: An embryo is created using the intended parents’ (or a donor’s) gametes via IVF. Once the surrogate is medically cleared and her cycle is synchronized, the healthy embryo is transferred to her uterus.
- Pregnancy Monitoring and Delivery: We work closely with the surrogate’s local doctor to monitor the pregnancy meticulously, ensuring the health and well-being of both the surrogate and the baby. We celebrate with you as you legally and emotionally welcome your child into the world.
Benefits of Surrogacy
- High Success Rates: Using healthy, screened surrogates often leads to higher success rates compared to other fertility treatments.
- Emotional Fulfillment: The journey creates a unique and powerful bond, bringing immense joy and fulfillment to intended parents and surrogates alike.
Benefits of Altruistic Surrogacy in India
While the decision to pursue surrogacy comes from a place of medical necessity, the legally supported path in India offers its own unique and powerful advantages.
- A Path to Your Biological Child For couples who are unable to carry a pregnancy, altruistic surrogacy is the sole path to having a child that is genetically their own. The law mandates that the baby must be conceived from the intended mother’s egg and father’s sperm, preserving your biological legacy.
- A Journey Built on Trust and Family The legal requirement for the surrogate to be a “close relative” ensures the journey is founded on love and trust. This avoids the uncertainties of commercial arrangements and allows the profound act of creating a family to happen within a supportive, known family environment.
- Clear Legal and Medical Security The Surrogacy (Regulation) Act, 2021 provides a secure framework that legally protects the rights of the child and establishes the intending parents as the legal parents from conception. The mandatory, thorough medical screening also ensures the utmost safety and well-being for your surrogate.
