Surrogate Mother Selection

The process of childbearing by the method of surrogate motherhood is based on a legally binding, notarized agreement between genetic parents and a surrogate mother, according to which a surrogate mother bears a child

A surrogate mother must be healthy and be able to bear a child without risks to her health and the health of her unborn child.

There are certain requirements for a woman who plans to become a surrogate mother, for example, such as her age and it is obligatory for the surrogate mother to have one healthy child of her own.

There are medical contraindications that exclude the possibility that a woman will become a surrogate mother, for example, a disease or a pathology that can prevent her from carrying a healthy child.

Therefore, all candidates for the role of a surrogate mother undergo the close control and medical examination.

Women who lead an unhealthy way of life (smoke, drink alcohol, are overweight, etc.) cannot become a surrogate mother because of the risks for both their health and the health of the child.

All tests that potential surrogate mothers undergo are valid for three months. Therefore, if you have chosen a surrogate mother who has already run out of tests, she will have to pass the tests again
