A surrogate mother is a woman who carries and gives birth to the child of another woman, who is usually infertile, by way of a pre-arranged legal contract. There are several types of surrogacy. In the gestational surrogacy program, the client family creates embryos via the In Vitro Fertilization process. The client husbands sperm and the client wifes eggs are utilized to create these embryos. These embryos are implanted into the uterus of the surrogate mother. The surrogate mother, who is not genetically related to the child in any way, carries the child on behalf of the client family. Gestational Surrogacy using an egg donor is identical to the gestational surrogacy program. However, another woman donates the eggs used in In Vitro Fertilization.
