Gestational surrogacy is an arrangement in which a woman — the gestational carrier — carries and delivers a child on behalf of the intended parents. The embryo is created using the intended parents' own eggs and sperm (or donor gametes) through IVF, meaning the surrogate has no genetic connection to the child she carries.
Surrogacy is a profoundly meaningful pathway to parenthood for people who are unable to carry a pregnancy themselves. At Lotus Fertility, we coordinate all clinical aspects of the surrogacy process and work with trusted legal and psychological support to ensure the journey is as smooth and well-supported as possible.
"Surrogacy is an act of extraordinary generosity — and for many families, the path that makes parenthood possible."
