Gestational Surrogacy

Introduction

Introduction to Gestational Surrogacy

When a woman wants a baby but does not have the ability to carry a child to full term on her own, gestational surrogacy may be a solution. It is also a way for same-sex male partners to embark on the road to parenthood. Gestational surrogacy takes time and preparation for all parties involved. Neway Fertility can help you on this journey by providing the expertise, information, and services necessary to make it successful.

A gestational surrogate is not biologically related to the child she carries. She is pregnant via in vitro fertilization. The sperm and eggs of the intended parents or donors are used to create the embryo. The embryo is transferred to the surrogate, who carries the child to term. When at least one of the intended parents is genetically related to the child, legal complications can be kept to a minimum. Stepparent or second-parent adoption is not required for gestational surrogacy.

Making the Decision for Surrogacy

Surrogacy requires significant commitment from everyone involved. When well-planned, it can be a very rewarding experience for both the family and the surrogate. Intended parents and the surrogate should consider all the pros and cons before moving forward with this important decision.

You may want to consider gestational surrogacy if you:

  • Have struggled with infertility
  • Are unable to carry a pregnancy to term safely
  • Are a hopeful single parent
  • Are you a same-sex couple
  • Do not want a genetic link between the surrogate and the child.

Please note that legal, financial, and other obligations will need to be addressed throughout the process. Neway Fertility can help you navigate through many of the steps involved with gestational surrogacy.

This process begins with finding a suitable surrogate. She may be a family friend, relative, or someone selected through an agency.

Once a suitable surrogate has been identified, the next step is to complete the legal contracts that will spell out the details of the process. Neway Fertility can make referrals to lawyers who specialize in assisted reproductive law. The contracts address legal risks and responsibilities, as well as the amount of compensation for the surrogate. When everyone is in agreement, the contracts are signed, and the IVF and transfer process can begin.

After the embryo has been transferred to the surrogate, she will carry the baby to term. The laws governing the gestational surrogacy process vary from state to state and depend on your specific circumstances. Neway Fertility can help guide you through the entire process from start to finish.

Patient Reviews

  • Dr. Wang is truly amazing

    Dr. Wang is truly amazing. He is the most compassionate, patient, and understanding doctor I have ever encountered. He takes the time to explain everything, making sure you feel comfortable and informed every step of the way. Compared to my consult at NYU, the experience at Neway was completely different. I felt at ease, never rushed, and always cared for. One of the best things about this clinic is how efficient they are, there is no waiting during appointments, and you get seen very quickly, which makes the whole process even smoother. If you are looking for a fertility clinic where you will feel supported and genuinely cared for, I highly recommend Dr. Wang, Dr. Lee, and the entire team at Neway.

  • Dr. Wang is the best IVF doctor in the country

    Dr. Wang’s care is unmatched. He personally performs every scan, retrieval, and transfer, and his gentle touch made my recovery seamless compared to past experiences. His nurse, Cecilia, and the rest of the team are equally incredible—organized, supportive, and attentive to every detail. If you’re searching for a doctor who truly cares, offers personalized protocols, and provides VIP care—especially if you’re older or have endometriosis—Dr. Wang is the best IVF doctor in the country. He made my dream of becoming a mom a reality, and I will forever be grateful for him!

  • He is an incredible doctor!

    I had tried 3 other clinics before finding Neway through a recommendation in a Facebook group. As soon as I met Dr. Wang my whole experience with infertility changed. I felt respected and taken care of which was far from my experience at other clinics. Dr. Wang is so friendly and compassionate, answers every email within depth explanations and personally sees you at every appointment. He is open to your input at every step of the way. He is an incredible doctor! I am so happy I found him. I couldn’t recommend him more highly.

  • I was incredibly grateful for the experience, thoughtfulness, and care provided by the team at Neway

    IVF is not a journey anyone wants to take. It is a roller coaster of emotions that is only made easier with a wonderful support system. We found that at Neway – with Dr. Zimmerman and the entire nursing team. Ours wasn’t an immediate success story – it took multiple cycles to become pregnant. But I was incredibly grateful for the experience, thoughtfulness, and care provided by the team at Neway. I cannot recommend them highly enough for anyone on this journey.
