Gestational Carrier — Surrogacy Program

Turning Dreams of Parenthood into Reality

At Nisa Fertility Clinic, we are proud to offer a Gestational Carrier (Surrogacy Program), designed for individuals and couples who are unable to carry a pregnancy themselves. This program combines advanced reproductive technology with the compassionate support of a carefully selected surrogate to help you achieve your dream of parenthood.

What is Gestational Surrogacy?

Gestational surrogacy is a process in which an embryo, created using the intended parent(s)’ egg and sperm or donor gametes, is implanted into a surrogate who carries the pregnancy to term. The gestational carrier has no genetic relationship to the child, as the embryo is created through in vitro fertilization (IVF).

This option is ideal for those facing medical or anatomical challenges that prevent them from carrying a pregnancy safely.

Who Can Benefit from the Surrogacy Program?

The gestational carrier program is ideal for:

  • Women with medical conditions that make pregnancy risky (e.g., heart disease, cancer recovery).
  • Women without a functional uterus (due to congenital conditions or hysterectomy).
  • Women with recurrent pregnancy loss or failed IVF cycles.
  • LGBTQ+ couples, including same-sex male couples.
  • Single individuals who wish to become parents.
The Gestational Carrier Process

1. Consultation and Evaluation

  • The journey begins with a thorough consultation to assess your medical history, fertility health, and eligibility for the program.

2. Finding the Right Carrier

  • We carefully screen and select qualified gestational carriers, ensuring they meet medical, psychological, and legal criteria.
  • Matching is personalized to ensure alignment between the intended parent(s) and the surrogate.

3. Embryo Creation and Transfer

  • Embryos are created through IVF using the intended parent(s)’ or donor gametes.
  • A healthy embryo is transferred to the surrogate’s uterus for implantation.

4. Pregnancy and Monitoring

  • The surrogate undergoes regular medical checkups and monitoring throughout the pregnancy to ensure the health and well-being of both the surrogate and the baby.

5. Delivery and Parenthood

  • At birth, the intended parent(s) are present to welcome their baby and begin their new chapter as a family.
