SURROGACY ADVICE & GUIDANCE
Families Through Surrogacy was set up by parents via surrogacy to help others on this journey
Everybody’s circumstances are different. You may be a couple with different nationalities. You may have embryos you need to transport. You may have an egg donor but not a surrogate. You may want to bring your egg donor with you, or create your embryos in one country, but complete surrogacy in another. Surrogacy may be something you are planing for two years hence, or it may be your last avenue after repeated failed IVF. Different providers suit different people.
Eligibility for surrogacy can depend on your citizenship, age, marital status, sexuality, financial circumstances and medical history. It depends on the country you engage in
Experience
Over the past six years, we have provided detailed advice to over 300 singles and couples from many nations to help them navigate their journeys to parenthood safely and with confidence.
Why Is Customised Expert Surrogacy Advice Advisable?
Surrogacy is a complex area and you deserve to know everything involved. Too often intended parents engage without full awareness of the risks and how to manage them.
Some feedback on providers we are not able to publish online owing to risks of defamation. However we are able to communicate such feedback one-on-one.
Surrogacy laws, destinations, paperwork requirements and eligibility continue to change.
What sort of Surrogacy Can we Advise On?
- Uncompensated (altruistic) surrogacy in Canada, UK, Australia or Greece
- Compensated surrogacy in USA, Ukraine, Georgia, Mexico, Laos or Kenya
