1. An epigrammatic synopsis on surrogacy
A woman giving birth to a child for intended parents is referred as surrogate. Couples seek proxy
arrangement when they are not able to carry the risk of pregnancy or can’t able to conceive due to
serious problems. Couples hire surrogates through agencies or attorneys. A proxy can conceive
proposed couple’s child through the gestational process or a traditional process. But, most often,
parents and doctors opt for gestational process as it is associated with less legal issues and is lower in
risk. Artificial insemination and embryo transfer play a vital role in fulfilling the dreams of intended
parent’s surrogacy.
A proxy lady can achieve pregnancy through the following ways;
Artificial insemination:
Artificial Insemination (AI) is a premeditated process where the male sperms are introduced to female’s
oviduct in order to achieve pregnancy. It is a medical alternative to natural insemination. This medical
alternative is used, when couples hire surrogates to complete their family. Through this process, the
lady becomes pregnant without involving in sensual intercourse.
Gestational surrogacy:
In this process, embryo or zygote is created by In-vitro fertilization by using the ovules and sperms of the
intended couple. Thus, the child born by this procedure is genetically related to parents and biologically
unrelated to a surrogate.
In some cases, the proposed father sperm and a donor ovum are fertilized through IVF. Later, the zygote
is injected to a surrogate womb. Baby born through this process is genetically related to the intended
father and unrelated to a proxy.
When the donor embryo is injected to the proxy’s womb, she becomes pregnant. The baby born
through this procedure is genetically not related to both intended parents and surrogate, as well.
Traditional Surrogacy:
Intended father donates his sperms in clinic, these sperm is later injected to a proxy lady. The baby born
through this process is genetically relevant to the proposed father and a surrogate.
Couples, who wish to enjoy parenthood by intended parent’s surrogacy, can contact agencies and
attorneys to hire a healthy lady as surrogate.
Legal issues:
When a lady becomes pregnant in a traditional procedure, the baby is genetically relevant to her and
the intended father. In most of the cases, surrogates find it hard to relinquish the child since it is related
to her. When she refuses to give the baby to the intended parents, it gives rise to the lawsuits and the
2. court rarely side with the intended mother. Therefore, to avoid all these sequences purported couples
and doctors opt for gestational surrogacy where the baby is genetically not relevant to a proxy mother.
Normally, a contract is made between the intended couple and surrogate to avoid future conflicts. This
contract briefly outlines the rights and responsibilities of couples and the surrogate along with the
compensation, medical and physiological screening fee paid to the lady. However, the laws of surrogacy
may vary from state to state. Therefore, it is important to know the legalities before opting to get a child
through proxy mothers. Added to this, the couples must confirm their parental rights to recognize
themselves as legal parents of a child born from a surrogate mother.
