Often infertility is associated with the inability to gestate the child. In such cases,it is used a complex assisted reproductive technology  - surrogate motherhood. Kiev involves a large selection of institutions in which such a method is available. But careful selection of women for such a responsible role is held in the IPF. We create all the conditions for the pregnancy to take place calmly and without abnormal situations, working with care for patients.

What is surrogate motherhood

This process refers to assisted reproductive technology. It involves 3 persons:

1. Genetic father. This is the man who provided the seminal fluid for conception, and will perform the duties of raising a child. In the presence of male infertility, you can use the donor sperm.
2. Genetic mother. This is a woman who provides her egg for conception, and will continue to take care of the baby. Usage of donor oocytes is possible.
3. Surrogate mother. This is a healthy woman of childbearing age who agrees to endure someone else's child.

Consider: after the birth of a baby, legal parents become persons who have provided genetic material (own or from a donor). The surrogate mother does not claim to be the biological mother and voluntarily gives the child.

Many are interested in the moral aspect. It should be understood: the services of a surrogate mother is the ability to use someone else's uterus for carrying a fetus. The child has no relationship with a woman who agreed to such a noble act.
