How Does Surrogacy Work In The USA?

Surrogacy in summary, is the hiring of another women to be a Surrogate to carry your baby.

For many women getting pregnant occurs naturally when you are in your 20’s and early 30’s. However, as women age, and specially once she is over 40 years of age it becomes more difficult to have a successful pregnancy. Currently about one out of every six women over 40 need the help of IVF, an Egg Donor and or a Surrogate to help have a beautiful health baby.

Among various reasons a Gestational Surrogate is used when:

It would be a high-risk pregnancy due to a medical condition requiring the help of a surrogate to carry the baby
The Embryos despite trying IVF and natural conception, just don’t implant in the uterus, necessitating a surrogate assistance.
The Intended parent’s Uterus is damaged or nonexistent, giving her no option but to use a surrogate.
The couple is gay or LGBTQ, requiring surrogacy and surrogate other to carry the baby

A good example is one of our client’s Alison.

Alison is 42 years old in excellent health and jogs five miles a week. She felt she was in better health then most 20-year-old women but was finding it hard to get pregnant and then had repeated miscarriages when she did get pregnant.

Our Gynecologist Examination revealed several problems. First her AMH level that used to be 6.0 in her 20’s was now below 1.0 indicating very poor egg quality. This is very common at age 40 and above.

Secondly, she had developed fibroids in her Uterus along with other issues as she aged making it difficult for the embryos to implant in to her Uterus to ensure a successful pregnancy.

How to Ensure a Successful Surrogacy:

STEP 1:

Use an Egg Donor to get top quality M2 Eggs:

Egg Donors are mostly young women in their 20’s who are willing to got through an IVF procedure to have their own eggs harvested, and then typically frozen to make them available to women who do not have good quality eggs to use for having a baby. In selecting an Egg Donor most parents look for Egg Donors who are like themselves in appearance and education. To look at a sample of Egg Donors available, go to IndianEggDonors.com , where over 1,000 egg donor profiles are listed. Open a free account and search the website to find a donor that you like.

STEP 2:

Create Embryos using top quality donor eggs:

This is typically done in an IVF Center with the assistance of their Embryologist. The Embryologist used the 12 donor eggs that Alison received, and sperm from her husband to create embryos. From the 12 eggs she generated 6 Embryos out of which4 matured to become Day 5 blastocyst. The likelihood of a successful pregnancy increases with using the day 5 blastocysts.

STEP 3:

Retain a Properly Screened Surrogate:

The next step for Alison was to find a great Surrogate to carry her baby. For this she searched the Internet to find the best surrogacy agency for her needs.

Her criteria for Best Surrogacy Agency selection were as follows:

Surrogacy Agency should have been in business for at least 10 years and had had many successful surrogacy births.
Ensure it is reputable fully licensed by both the state in which it operates as well as the FDA, as well as has full insurance coverage for over $1 million. Less than 10% of the Surrogacy Agencies meet this criterion. Our Agency Surrogacy4all.com meets all these criteria and hence is a surrogate agency of choice for many Intended Parents
Check on the services they offer to ensure the surrogate agency can support you throughout the surrogacy journey. Some agencies only provide a match and disappear. What you need is an established, full-service surrogacy agency that offers all surrogacy services from matching to case management to legal services—this will make your surrogacy journey significantly less stressful.
Check on how the surrogates are screened. Many agencys are owned and managed by Lawyers. Our agency which has several physicians on the staff focusses on the very important medical aspects of ensuring a successful surrogacy. This includes the following different areas of screening:
1. Complete medical checkups and medical history review of the donor including a thorough Gynecological examination
2. Emotional wellbeing review by a psychologist to confirm the surrogate is comfortable being a surrogate and giving up the baby at birth. Some potential surrogates have a problem with this and are automatically rejected by us in the screening process.
3. We put strong emphasis on ensuring a strong match between surrogates and intended parents.
4. We arrange to have separate legal representation for each party. The Intended Parents have their own lawyers. The surrogate has her own lawyers.
5. Understand fully the financial costs from a cost sheet, how the escrow account works and how the surrogate gets paid.

The Surrogacy Journey in the USA

As mentioned earlier we have several physicians closely affiliated with us working in our surrogacy practice. Once the surrogate is pregnant, they are required to consult with either our physicians or a registered dietician multiple times during the pregnancy.. Our goal is to create a bond and trust between the Intended Parents and the Surrogate that result in the fulfillment of everyone’s dreams.
