 Yes. Most programs, especially in the USA, Mexico, and Georgia, welcome single parents and LGBTQ+ families, while Canada allows altruistic surrogacy only.
 You can select a donor after your initial consultation. Donors undergo comprehensive medical, genetic, hormonal, and psychological testing, and profiles include education, photos, and family history.
 Typically, 3–6 embryos are created per IVF cycle. PGT (genetic) testing is optional but recommended to ensure healthy embryo selection.
 Embryo transfer usually occurs 2–3 weeks after fertilization and embryo culture, depending on the surrogate’s cycle synchronization.
 Yes, twins are possible if more than one embryo is transferred, but clinics often recommend single embryo transfer to reduce risks.

 Depending on the country, intended parents may attend prenatal checkups and ultrasounds, and in most cases, they are present at delivery.
Payments are processed through regulated channels such as:
• Escrow accounts

• Legally approved reimbursements (Canada)
This ensures transparency and protects both parents and surrogates.

 Gender selection is possible only where legally allowed (e.g., via PGT testing in certain countries) and is prohibited in others like India and Mexico.

Screening takes 2–4 weeks, including medical, genetic, and psychological tests. Donor anonymity depends on the program; some countries allow open donor options, others remain fully anonymous.
 Surrogates receive structured payments as per their contract, usually tied to pregnancy milestones, medical checkups, and successful delivery.
 Risks include IVF failure, pregnancy complications, multiple pregnancies, or legal delays. Careful screening and experienced clinics minimize these risks.
 Parents receive regular pregnancy updates, access to medical reports, and guidance on delivery. Post-birth programs provide legal support, travel assistance, and newborn care guidance.
