Having children is a milestone that many people like to reach in life. Unfortunately, many individuals cannot have children without assistance. Whether a couple is a member of the LGBTQ community, struggles with infertility, or wishes to be a single parent, these circumstances require alternate methods.
There are several different ways that a surrogate agency can assist you in having a child. From egg donation to surrogacy, this blog will look at what it is that surrogacy agencies do to help.
Egg donation is a process that is available at more surrogacy agencies. Egg donation involves a female donating her eggs so that another individual or couple can use them to have a child. This egg will later be implanted in a mother or a surrogate. Egg donors not only give the ability to have children to a deserving individual or couple, but they also receive financial compensation for their donation.
Surrogacy is a process where another female carries a baby throughout pregnancy for an individual or couple. There are two different types of surrogacy methods to choose from.
Traditional Surrogacy
Traditional surrogacy involves using the father’s or donor’s sperm to impregnate the surrogate. This means that the surrogate’s eggs are used and the surrogate will share a genetic connection to the child. Due to legal reasons, this is the less common type of surrogacy.
Gestational Surrogacy
Gestational surrogacy involves fertilizing an egg outside of the body and then placing the embryo into the surrogate. This means that the child could potentially have the genetics of both parents and will have no genetic tie to the surrogate at all. This is the more common surrogacy choice as there are less legal hoops to jump through after the baby is born.
No matter which type of surrogacy you choose to move forward with, both methods are offered by surrogacy agencies to help you have a baby of your own.
