Learn How Embryo Transport Works

Surrogacy for LGBTQ Families is a medically supervised and legally structured pathway where a gestational surrogate carries a pregnancy for intended LGBTQ parents—gay couples, lesbian couples using donor sperm, transgender individuals, non-binary parents, or single LGBTQ parents. The surrogate has no genetic relation to the baby, as embryos are created using either the parents’ own sperm/eggs or donor gametes.

Indian Egg Donors supports LGBTQ families globally by offering fully screened Indian egg donors, partner fertility clinics, international surrogacy programs (USA, Mexico, Colombia, and Canada), legal support, embryo transport coordination, and compassionate guidance from start to finish.

At Indian Egg Donors, every candidate—whether a surrogate or an intended parent—is evaluated through internationally accepted medical protocols. These include hormonal testing, genetic screening, infectious disease testing, ultrasound evaluations, psychological assessments, and embryo-transfer readiness checks.

The goal is to ensure a healthy pregnancy, prevent complications, and maximize success rates across domestic and international surrogacy programs.

Step-by-Step Process

Initial Consultation

Parents meet the Indian Egg Donors team to discuss:

  • Surrogacy destination
  • Donor preferences
  • Timeline
  • Budget
  • Legal frameworks
  • Sperm/egg availability

This step helps identify the most suitable country for LGBTQ-friendly surrogacy.

  • Select from verified Indian Egg Donors profiles
  • Surrogates undergo medical, psychological, and lifestyle screening
  • LGBTQ-friendly surrogates available in Mexico, Colombia, USA, and Canada

Parents review profiles and choose based on health, personality, and values

Contracts are drafted with attorneys:

  • Surrogate agreement
  • Donor agreement
  • Parental rights documentation
  • Financial terms
  • Birth plan

This protects both the surrogate and the intended parents.

  • Sperm collected from one or both male partners
  • Egg retrieval from donor or intended mother
  • Embryos created and frozen
  • PGT-A testing optional

Embryos may be created in the USA and transported internationally based on laws.

The surrogate begins hormonal preparation. A single embryo is transferred to reduce risk and increase safety.

Indian Egg Donors’ clinic partners coordinate:

  • Routine scans

  • Prenatal care
  • Emergency support

Parents receive consistent updates with ultrasound videos and reports.

At delivery:

  • Parents attend the birth (if possible)

  • Parental orders completed
  • Passport/travel documentation handled

Parents return home legally recognized as the child’s parents.
