Travelling abroad for surrogacy is for many couples the only solution to have a family But now with India Thailand and Mexico closing their doors toforeign people coming for surrogacy there are only a few windows for those who want to have a child
The rst attested case of surrogacy goes back to the 1970s being also the rst legal surrogacy agreement was enacted in New Jersey Over the yearssurrogacy has become a more successful procedure and process being a solution not only for heterosexual couples with infertility problems but also forgay couples and single men and women who want to become parents

Traditional surrogacyTraditional surrogacy The surrogate is arti cially inseminated with the fathers sperm She then carries the baby and delivers it for the parents to raiseA traditional surrogate is the babys biological mother because it was her egg that was fertilized by the fathers sperm Donor sperm can also be used for atraditional surrogacy
Gestational surrogacy Gestational surrogacy In Vitro Fertilization makes it possible to harvest eggs from the mother fertilize them with sperm from the father and place theembryo into the uterus of a gestational surrogate A gestational surrogate has no genetic ties to the child Thats because it wasnt her egg that was used Agestational surrogate is called the birth mother but the biological mother is the woman whose egg was fertilized
Because the contract for traditional surrogacy is more complex (the surrogate has to give up her rights upon the child who will be adopted by the intendedparents) and because many couples do not want the surrogate mother to be linked to the child in any way most of them choose gestational surrogacyWhen one of both intended parents have fertility issues so no eggs or no sperm can be used from them they have the option to choose an egg or a spermdonor
In the US the price for surrogacy varies from $80000 to $120000 and the cost is determined by a wide range of factors such as medical insurance for thesurrogate if the parents have to buy a surrogacy-pregnancy policy for her medication tests for the surrogate etc
Surrogacy abroadSurrogacy abroad
Over the last years many people chose to cross the border to have access to affordable surrogacy and laws that made the entire process really easy Forexample people in the UK choose surrogacy abroad because in their country the law allows surrogates to change their mind at any point and decide to keepthe child they are carrying while in the US the prices are excruciating (sometimes even more than $150000)
The most important destinations for surrogacy were Mexico India Thailand Georgia Nepal Ukraine Russia UK and some states in the US
Thailand closed its doors to foreigners coming here for surrogacy after the baby Gammy case the child born with Downs syndrome who was not wanted bythe Australian intended parents who took only his healthy twin sister back home
The state of Tabasco Mexico banned surrogacy limiting the service only to local couples Their decision was made to avoid impoverished women in thecountry from being exploited
The Nepali Supreme court has issued an injunction suspending surrogacy for foreigners across the country because there are currently no laws regardingsurrogacy raising many constitutional and legal questions
The Indian government has also considered that poor illiterate women are being exploited banning surrogacy for foreigners but allowing it for locals Overthe past years many surrogacy clinics were opened turning this process into an unregulated business
