Gay Surrogacy Programs: What options do you have? 

(1) Traditional Surrogacy: 

(1.1) Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) of the Surrogate Mother with your sperm;

Tiny One is Designed for you using this Formula for this option can be represented in this way: 

Surrogate  Mother’s oocyte + your sperm = One tiny one or if two Surrogate  Mother’s oocytes are fertilized, you will have two newborn bundles in nearly ten months… It will be revealed soon how many tiny ones you will have, stay tuned!

(1.2)  Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) of the Surrogate Mother with donor sperm  (if you both cannot produce the healthy sperm but do want to have the  tiny one or tiny ones the donor sperm can be used);

Tiny One is Designed for you using this Formula for this option can be represented in this way: 

Surrogate  Mother’s oocyte + donor sperm = One tiny one or if two Surrogate  Mother’s oocytes are fertilized, you will have two newborn bundles in nearly ten months… It will be revealed soon how many tiny ones you will have, stay tuned!

(1.3) In Vitro  Fertilization (IVF) of the Surrogate Mother’s oocyte with your sperm or with your sperm via Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) when the single, premium–quality spermatozoon is taken and manually injected inside the perfect–quality oocyte and the boutique embryo appears!

IVF cycle is designed and the tiny one or more than one will be created in the laboratory by Embryologists. 

Tiny One is Designed for you using this Formula for this option can be represented in this way: 

Surrogate  Mother’s RETRIEVED oocytes + your sperm (or perfect–quality your sperm is prepared and one single spermatozoon is injected in every oocyte via  ICSI) + (+mock embryo transfer procedure) + actual embryo transfer procedure = One tiny one or if two Surrogate Mother’s oocytes are fertilized, you will have two newborn bundles in nearly ten months… It will be revealed soon how many tiny ones you will have, stay tuned!

(1.4)  In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) of the Surrogate Mother’s oocyte with donor sperm or with donor sperm via Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection  (ICSI) when the single, premium–quality spermatozoon is taken and manually injected inside the perfect–quality oocyte and the boutique embryo appears!

(2) Gestational Surrogacy: 

(2.1)  Donor oocyte is chosen for In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) with your sperm  (sometimes Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) can be performed),  and after that, the tiny embryo or embryos will be transferred inside the  Gestational Carrier’s womb (the Surrogate Mother won’t have any genetic  link to the tiny one/tiny ones she will carry);

Tiny One is Designed for you using this Formula for this option can be represented in this way:

Donor Oocyte + Your Sperm + Gestational Carrier = Your Tiny Bundle or more than one

(2.2)  Donor oocyte is chosen for In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) and the donor sperm is taken for fertilization without/ (if you both cannot produce the healthy sperm but do want to have the tiny one or tiny ones the donor sperm can be used). Sometimes Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection  (ICSI) can be performed for fertilizing every boutique–quality oocyte,  and after that, the tiny embryo or embryos will be transferred inside the Gestational Carrier’s womb (the Surrogate Mother won’t have any genetic link to the tiny one/tiny ones she will carry).

Tiny One is Designed for you using this Formula for this option can be represented in this way:

Donor Oocyte + Donor Sperm + Gestational Carrier = Your Tiny Bundle or more than one

Traditional Surrogacy and Gestational Surrogacy are two unparalleled versions of surrogacy. Wondering WHY?

(1) Traditional Surrogacy Dimension

Traditional  Surrogacy is also termed “partial surrogacy” or “genetic surrogacy”  because the Surrogate Mother has a genetic link to the tiny one or tiny ones she carries. The genetic “blueprint” of the Surrogate Mother may complicate Traditional Surrogacy both emotionally and legally but this version of surrogacy is designed for single men and same–sex male couples. 

How can they create the tiny embryo if Traditional Surrogacy is chosen? 

For Traditional Surrogacy, the tiny sparkling embryos may be created through intrauterine insemination (IUI) to artificially inseminate the surrogate mother using the intended father’s sperm or through in vitro insemination (IVF) to design the tiny sparkling embryos in the laboratory in two ways: standard insemination or insemination through intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI).

Intrauterine insemination is the most natural option designed by the specialist to achieve pregnancy. The tiny Embryo is designed as the blend of the  Surrogate Mother’s oocyte and the intended father’s spermatozoon. 

Wondering what is an ‘EMBRYO’? Here you GO… The assembly of a new life first depends on the union between a spermatozoon and an oocyte culminating in fertilization. If fertilization occurs, the EMBRYO APPEARS. Fertilization is a  mysterious phenomenon that turns two cells into a tiny embryo–dude or a  tiny embryo–lady, or if two oocytes are fertilized then…two tiny embryos–dudes! Or two tiny embryos–ladies! Or if three oocytes are fertilized then three tiny embryos–babies: two tiny Handsome Embryo–Dudes and one Tiny Sparkling Embryo–Lady! The Miracles Start Here… The Tiny  Sparkles are here… Many versions can be inserted here…

How Does the Tiny Sparkling Embryo Appear in a Natural Way?

Wondering how does Fertilization happen? Usually, a spermatozoon and an oocyte  ‘meet’ in one of the two Fallopian tubes that connect the ovaries to the womb (uterus). Wondering how the embryo–baby normally ‘appears’  and implants in the uterus? The tiny embryo–dude or the tiny embryo–lady  (fertilized oocyte) then moves down the Fallopian tube by being wafted by fine hairs inside the tubes until it reaches the womb (uterus) two,  three, or four days later. Once there, this tiny embryo–bundle wonders where it should cuddle up in this new place. And it implants,  attaching itself to the womb lining and that is where it usually continues to grow and develop.

The ability of the Fallopian tube to transfer the early embryo into the uterus is an excessive modality for a successful pregnancy. Apparently,  structural abnormalities and functional abnormalities of the Fallopian tube will interfere with the embryo transfer process which can lead to tubal pregnancy.

In Vitro Fertilization for the Traditional Surrogacy. How Does the Embryo Appear in Case it is IVF Treatment Cycle? 

In  Vitro Fertilization Treatment Cycle is designed to create Tiny  Sparkling Embryos in the laboratory and after that to transfer them to the mother’s uterus. In other words, IVF [or EMBRYO  ‘CREATION’] happens in the laboratory.

The Tiny Perfect Embryos Are Made Exclusively [‘DESIGNED’] For You

Fertilization  (making the embryos from Surrogate Mother’s oocytes (as we are talking about Traditional Surrogacy) and your sperm) is possible even in difficult cases. Not always standard insemination can be used for oocyte fertilization.

Embryologists will ‘design’ half–authentic your tiny sparkling embryo–ladies and handsome embryo–dudes in the laboratory. Half–authentic as their Genetic  Code will be designed from the Surrogate Mother’s Genetic Code and from the intended father’s genetic code.

They will take the retrieved oocytes of the Surrogate Mother and toss them in a Petri dish with the intended father’s sperm and let them do their  Mysterious Thing [YAY!]... Another option is called intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), where the Embryologists manually fertilize the oocytes with the sperm individually, but it is for extreme cases only.  The ICSI procedure is done with the aid of a microscope and fine instruments, one single, boutique–quality spermatozoon is taken and injected directly into every Surrogate Mother’s mature oocyte.

Indications for ICSI include such cases as the previous semen analysis demonstrating significant abnormalities, in situations where surgical aspiration of sperm from the vas deferens or testicle, or a previous IVF  cycle with poor fertilization. You will know the next morning how many of the Surrogate Mother’s oocytes have been fertilized correctly. After that, you will be waiting three long days or…more.

The embryologist will tell you how many embryos Fair, Good, and Excellent quality are. Can you imagine that? Those ones glittering gorgeous tiny embryos–ladies and handsome embryo–dudes were designed especially for you. All of them are perfect. And all of them are anticipating the time when they will be transferred!

The Actual Embryo Transfer seems that the sparkling tiny ones are Launched!

The  Actual Embryo Transfer Occurs in This Way…The Miracle for Your Tiny  Sparkling Embryo (or More Than One Tiny Sparkle…) Starts from being taken out from the Petri Dish and Placed in the Private, Premium–Level  “Shuttle” (Catheter)! Three, two, one… GO! Imagine! Drive Through!  Launch!

The embryo will appear inside  Surrogate Mother’s uterus via a tiny catheter. Your tiny scared embryo–lady or embryo–dude is taken out of the Petri–dish and waits for a  ‘BIG TRANSFER’. If it is time to replace this small embryo–bundle from the tube inside Surrogate Mother’s uterus, it is placed inside a  flexible catheter. The procedure of Embryo Transfer takes only several minutes. It takes all of three minutes to insert a weird kind of catheter, get it to where it needs to be, accurately place your little embryo inside your uterus, and that is all. YES, and it has to ‘LEARN’  so many things inside. It wonders: ‘Where am I?’ ‘What has happened?’  ‘Everything is pulsating around me…’ ‘Should I curl up here or there?’  ‘Oh, it is better on the left side?’ ‘I am scared. I will just cuddle up  in that warm place and sleep there.’

Are There the Miracles to Happen After That? Yes, Be Sure!

If you can see those tiny heartbeats on the ultrasound screen, your tiny embryo or fetus is alive! You will go through many things before this  UNIQUE MOMENT. They will perform the first external ultrasound to determine how your little one spends its time inside Surrogate  Mother. It’ll be terrifying, but you will keep your focus on the black-and-white screen by your side. And if you can see those tiny heartbeats  (that glittering red spot or several spots) on the ultrasound screen,  your tiny embryo or fetus is with you, inside Surrogate Mother. Amused?  Just curl a smile!

What Happens After This Mysterious Heartbeat Visualization? 

From this moment, the Surrogate Mother will carry the tiny one as if it were any other pregnancy. When your Tiny Bundle is born, the Surrogate  Mother will be the biological mother and will have parental rights.  Therefore, the newborn bundle should be legally adopted by the intended parents.

Cost for Same-Sex Surrogacy: 

Every pregnancy is absolutely unique. Every Surrogate Mother is absolutely unique. Every tiny bundle growing inside the surrogate mother is also absolutely unique. Therefore, every surrogacy case involves its unique factors that can impact the overall fees and price. Here, it should be noted, that all the basic Terms and Conditions will be formulated and included in Surrogacy Services Initial Agreement/Surrogacy Contract.  Before you sign the initial version of the Surrogacy Contract, there would be negotiations, and if the consensus is established the draft version/versions of the Surrogacy Contract will be prepared to further discussion.

You and your attorney will Draft and Negotiate the Surrogacy Contract Terms and Conditions,  include and exclude things that may cause a misunderstanding between you and the surrogate mother, and discuss with the surrogate mother everything in the utmost detail. And only after that you and your surrogate mother will sign the initial Surrogacy Contract. The more accurately you formulate every tiny detail and note it down to the Surrogacy Contract, the fewer misunderstandings and misinterpretations will be in the future. If something is too multiplex to understand, ask the attorney to interpret everything about that. If something may cause an inaccurate interpretation, ask the attorney to reformulate the Terms/Conditions to avoid the dual interpretation. The Surrogacy Contract is a legally binding contract. Therefore prior to signing it, ask to have each term fully explained to you so that you clearly understand the agreement. And do ask to include the ESTIMATED COSTS for everything with two extremes:  the minimum price and the maximum price. For example, the Surrogate  Mother’s fee ($20,000–22,000 for single–birth, $24,000–28,000 for twins,  $30,000–34,000 for triplets, etc.). The price also depends on the country.

Traditional Surrogacy Laws for Gay Surrogacy

Most of the laws are so complicated. You are trying to understand them but there are so many nuances hidden behind every sentence, every word, and even every letter! It turns you into a bundle of nerves because of the embarrassing interpretations. They may interpret one law in so many versions! Or even blend one law with the other. No one will understand completely what is going on except attorneys! Lack of transparency and inclusiveness in the law may lead to misinterpretation and adverse consequences in the future. And we all know about that.

Surrogacy laws can be extremely confusing — especially because not every country has transparent laws regulating surrogacy. Not every country has surrogacy laws that don’t have dual interpretations. And not every country has completely formulated and inclusively represented surrogacy laws that “shape” the legal surrogacy process for both parties (for intended parent/parents and surrogate mothers).

Traditional  Surrogacy involves additional legal complications and processes, such as termination of maternal parental rights (as the Surrogate mother is the baby’s mother) and step–parent adoption of the baby by the intended parent/parents. For these reasons, it is very important to consult with an excessively experienced attorney in Surrogacy Dimension through every stage of the traditional surrogacy process.

Traditional  Surrogacy and Gestational Surrogacy are regulated by country/state laws. In some countries/states, surrogacy is not legal at all.  Traditional surrogacy may be illegal even in some countries/states where gestational surrogacy is legal. In this case, it is possible to choose the donor oocyte and make the surrogacy gestational as the Surrogate  Mother will be not the mother for the baby she carries. The Surrogate  Mother will be the Gestational carrier for the tiny bundle she carries  because the genetic content will be yours and the oocyte–donors. There won’t be a genetic link between your baby and Surrogate Mother.

(2) Gestational Surrogacy Dimension

Let’s Glance “INSIDE” the Gestational Surrogacy Dimension!

Gestational  Surrogacy is the most favorable and preferable type of surrogacy nowadays. Gestational Surrogate Mother sometimes is called a  “Gestational Carrier” because the Surrogate Mother doesn’t have a genetic link to the tiny one or tiny ones she carries. The baby has the genetic “blueprint” of the intended parents (intended mother’s and intended father’s) or intended parent and donor’s (intended mother’s and sperm donor’s; oocyte donor’s and intended father’s or oocyte donor’s and sperm donor’s).

Gestational Surrogacy is designed for same-sex couples:

(1)  “Same-Sex (Gay) Surrogacy Program”, when the intended fathers can produce   healthy sperm, but Traditional Surrogacy is forbidden by the law,  therefore, an oocyte donor is needed and the Surrogate Mother will carry  the baby without a genetic link, though won’t have the parental rights;

(2)  “Same-Sex (Gay) Surrogacy Program”, when the intended fathers cannot produce healthy sperm, and Traditional Surrogacy is forbidden by the law, therefore,  sperm donor and oocyte donor are needed. The Surrogate Mother will carry  the baby without a genetic link, though won’t have parental rights;

(3)  “Two–Mommies Program”, when it is impossible to carry a pregnancy but  the intended mothers can produce healthy oocytes, the sperm donor is  also needed;

(4) “Two–Mommies  Program”, when it is impossible to carry a pregnancy and the intended mothers cannot produce healthy oocytes, both oocyte donor and sperm donor are needed.

How can they create the tiny embryo if Gestational Surrogacy is chosen? 

The tiny Embryo will be designed as the blend of the Donor’s oocyte and the intended father’s spermatozoon/donor’s spermatozoon. The Surrogate  Mother won’t have the genetic link with the tiny one. She will only carry the small bundle and will give birth to the tiny ones or tiny ones.

For Gestational Surrogacy the tiny sparkling embryos may be created through in vitro insemination  (IVF) to artificially inseminate the donor’s oocytes using (1) the intended father’s sperm or (2) the donor’s sperm.

To design the tiny sparkling embryos in the laboratory they will use two strategies: standard insemination or insemination through intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI).

In Vitro Fertilization for the Traditional Surrogacy. How Does the Embryo Appear in Case it is IVF Treatment Cycle? 

In  Vitro Fertilization Treatment Cycle is designed to create Tiny  Sparkling Embryos in the laboratory and after that to transfer them to the mother’s uterus. In other words, FERTILIZATION [or EMBRYO  ‘CREATION’] happens in the laboratory.

The Tiny Perfect Embryos Are Made Exclusively [‘DESIGNED’] For You

Fertilization  (making the embryos from the donor’s oocytes and your sperm) is possible even in difficult cases. Not always standard insemination can be used for oocyte fertilization.

Embryologists will ‘design’ absolutely–authentic your tiny sparkling embryo–ladies and handsome embryo–dudes in the laboratory. Absolutely authentic as their Genetic Code will be designed from the Donor’s oocyte Genetic Code and from the intended father’s/donor sperm genetic code. The Surrogate  Mother won’t have the genetic link with the tiny one. She will only carry the small bundle and will give birth to the tiny ones or tiny ones.

They will take the donor’s oocytes and toss them in a Petri dish with the intended father’s sperm and let them do their Mysterious Thing [YAY!]... If you cannot produce the healthy sperm, they will take the donor’s retrieved oocytes and toss them in a Petri dish with the donor’s sperm and let them do their Mysterious  Thing [YAY!]...

The ICSI procedure is done with the aid of a  microscope and fine instruments, one single, boutique–quality spermatozoon is taken and injected directly into every mature oocyte.  And this makes it possible to have the tiny one with your genetic code! And it is AWESOME!

Indications for ICSI  include such cases as the previous semen analysis demonstrating significant abnormalities, in situations where surgical aspiration of sperm from the vas deferens or testicle, or a previous IVF cycle with poor fertilization. You will know the next morning how many of your/donor’s oocytes have been fertilized correctly. After that, you will be waiting three long days or…more.

From this moment, the Surrogate Mother will carry the tiny one as if it were any other pregnancy. When your Tiny Bundle is born, the Surrogate  Mother WON’T BE the biological mother and WON’T have parental rights. Therefore, the newborn bundle shouldn’t be legally adopted by the intended parents. The newborn bundle will be yours! No one else’s!

Gestational Surrogacy Cost: 

Gestational  Surrogacy Costs depend on many factors. In every case, the expenses and the ultimate cost will be different. It is essential that you and your attorney and the Surrogate Mother with her attorney design the draft versions of the Gestational Surrogacy Contract and after that negotiate it to make one draft version blended from the Terms and Conditions represented in two draft versions. After that, it is vital to formulate all the Terms and Conditions, all the Costs and Expenses and to design the most transparent and inclusive initial Gestational Surrogacy  Contract that will be signed. In the event of a dispute between the  Intended Parents and the Gestational Surrogate Mother (Gestational Carrier)  regarding either party’s obligations under the Gestational Surrogacy  Contract, the parties should agree to submit such dispute to arbitration.

The more accurately you formulate every tiny detail and note it down to the Surrogacy Contract,  the fewer misunderstandings and misinterpretations will be in the future. If something is too multiplex to understand, ask the attorney to interpret everything about that. If something may cause an inaccurate interpretation, ask the attorney to reformulate the  Terms/Conditions to avoid the dual interpretation. The Surrogacy  Contract is a legally binding contract. Therefore prior to signing it,  ask to have each term fully explained to you so that you clearly understand the agreement. And do ask to include the ESTIMATED COSTS for everything with two extremes: the minimum price and the maximum price.  For example, the Surrogate Mother’s fee ($20,000–22,000 for single–birth, $24,000–28,000 for twins, $30,000–34,000 for triplets,  etc.).

Gestational Surrogacy Laws

While surrogacy law can be extremely complicated, the legal process for  Gestational Surrogacy is often less complex than for Traditional  Surrogacy. In Gestational Surrogacy, at least one parent is usually genetically related to the baby, simplifying custody issues.
