What Is The Process Of Becoming A

Surrogate?
If you are considering becoming a surrogate and want to know how to become one, the first
step would be understanding the process of becoming a surrogate.
At Eva hospital’s Infertility clinic, we provide surrogacy services. Once a couple is ready to
take the help of a surrogate, our team of doctors handles everything for them as well as the
surrogate mother. 
It is a great thing helping other human beings, bringing them the joy of parenthood, a
priceless gift. 
We are providing the basics here on how to become the stork for a couple.

1. The requirements
A candidate for gestational surrogacy is a person who is comfortable and happy about being
pregnant and genuinely wants to help someone build a family through her. Ideally, she should
be between 21 & 44 years old and have given birth in the past. She should have support from
her husband and her immediate family about this decision. Her previous pregnancies should
be normally healthy.

As a candidate for surrogacy, you must be a non-smoker, without any medical or criminal
issues, and with a regular BMI or body mass index. You must as well be mentally and
physically prepared to undergo the required tests and evaluations. 

2. Understanding gestational & traditional surrogacy


A gestational surrogate mother is one who carries a baby that is conceived through IVF. In
this case the egg is of the intended mother & the sperm is that of the intended father or a
sperm donor. As a gestational surrogate, you would not be genetically related to the child.

A traditional surrogate is the one who is usually artificially inseminated using the intended
father’s sperm using her own egg. She is the genetic and biological mother of the offspring
she is carrying for the couple.

3. Connect with an Infertility clinic or surrogacy agency.


You should work with an agency or infertility clinic that can make your surrogacy experience
positive, smooth and streamlined from the beginning.

You will be meeting the intended parents who you are going to help so that you feel
connected. The legal aspects and medical aspects as well would be taken care of by the
doctors. Eva hospital handles surrogacy services under a comprehensive program that will
assist you in your journey. 
We ensure the highest ethics, standards, and integrity about the personal issues related to
surrogacy and childbirth. You must feel comfortable and protected during the entire process.

4) The ideal Match


At Eva Infertility Clinic, Dr Shivani Bhutani makes it a point to accommodate the surrogates’
wishes in every way. Surrogacy is like a relationship that is unique and based on the personal
choices and individualistic concerns of everyone involved in this relationship. We always go
ahead when the match is perfect which may happen quickly or take some time.   
5. Interaction with intended parents
After the intended parents have had a chance to discover relevant details about you, your
inclinations, and your backdrop, we arrange a meeting between you and your chosen couple.
It gives everyone an opportunity to get familiarized, to ask questions of each other, and to
learn more about the features of the entire process moving forward.

6. The surrogacy contract


Gestational surrogacy entails legal as well as medical arrangements, requiring a written
agreement or contract that inscribes the responsibilities, roles, and duties of each personn
involved.

Unless you are comfortable and satisfied with outlined obligations, no papers need to be
signed. You will not be asked to sign anything until you are comfortable with the obligations
and expectations. All the documentation costs are borne by the intended parents. After the
papers are signed, you proceed to the next medical phase.

 7. Understand the time commitment


The surrogacy procedure is not very time consuming, but make sure it aligns with your other
goals in life. You will be required to attend the clinic for monitoring after the embryo transfer
and implantation. You would also need a time commitment from your Support Person or
family while you go for the tests and procedures.
