Surrogacy is a remarkable assisted reproductive option that allows individuals or couples who cannot carry a pregnancy to have a biological child. Through In Vitro Fertilization (IVF), embryos are created using the intended parents’ or donors’ gametes and then transferred into a surrogate’s uterus for gestation.
At Viva Fertility Clinic, our surrogacy IVF program combines advanced medical technology with ethical, emotional, and legal support to help families grow with confidence and care.
Surrogacy involves a woman (the surrogate) carrying a pregnancy for another person or couple (the intended parents). There are two main types:
| Type | Description | Genetic Relationship |
|---|---|---|
| Gestational Surrogacy: | Embryos are created via IVF using the intended parents’ or donors’ eggs and sperm, then transferred to the surrogate. | The surrogate has no genetic link to the baby. |
| Traditional Surrogacy: | The surrogate’s own egg is fertilized with the intended father’s sperm through IUI or IVF. | The surrogate is genetically related to the baby. |
At Viva Fertility Clinic, we exclusively offer gestational surrogacy, ensuring clear genetic and legal boundaries.
Surrogacy may be recommended for:
Women with uterine abnormalities or absence of the uterus
Repeated IVF failures or recurrent pregnancy loss
Severe medical conditions that make pregnancy unsafe
Same‑sex male couples or single men wishing to have biological children
Individuals pursuing parenthood through donor eggs or donor sperm
Both intended parents and surrogates undergo:
Medical and fertility evaluations
Psychological counselling
Infectious disease screening
Legal and ethical briefings
Eggs and sperm are collected from the intended parents or donors. Fertilization occurs in the laboratory, and embryos are cultured for 3–5 days.
A selected healthy embryo is transferred into the surrogate’s uterus. The surrogate then carries the pregnancy to term under close medical supervision.
Regular prenatal care, ultrasound scans, and medical check‑ups are conducted at Viva Fertility Clinic to ensure the health of both surrogate and baby.
After birth, legal documentation ensures the intended parents’ full parental rights. Our team coordinates with legal professionals to make this process seamless and transparent.
Surrogacy laws vary by country and region. At Viva Fertility Clinic, we adhere strictly to:
Ethical medical practices
Legal compliance with local and international surrogacy regulations
Confidentiality and informed consent for all parties
We collaborate with licensed legal experts to ensure clarity and protection for both intended parents and surrogates.
Surrogacy IVF offers one of the highest success rates among assisted reproductive treatments, particularly when using healthy donor eggs and medically screened surrogates. Success depends on factors such as:
Age and health of egg donor
Embryo quality
Surrogate’s uterine health
