gestational surrogates

A gestational surrogate is a woman who carries a pregnancy for someone else, using an embryo created from the intended parents’ or donors’ eggs and sperm. She has no genetic connection to the baby. This process typically involves in-vitro fertilization (IVF), where the embryo is implanted into her uterus. Surrogacy is often pursued by individuals or couples unable to carry a pregnancy themselves due to medical reasons. It’s a collaborative process that includes legal, medical, and emotional considerations to ensure the rights and well-being of all parties involved.
