Starting a family is one of life’s most profound journeys, especially for LGBTQ+ individuals and couples who require third-party reproduction methods, such as surrogacy, to grow their families. While surrogacy is beautiful and exciting, it can also feel overwhelming at times. At the International Surrogacy Center, we believe that every intended parent deserves reassurance, guidance, and emotional support throughout this process. You aren’t alone on this journey, and together, we can help turn your dreams of parenthood into a reality.
Navigating the Surrogacy Process
Surrogacy involves many moving parts, but our agency is here to simplify this complexity and offer clear guidance. We’ll help you through every step of the journey, including:
- Matching and screening: We know how important it is to find someone who aligns with your values and understands your dreams. Our experienced team personally interviews and approves each candidate, matches intended parents with the most suitable surrogate, and guides all intended parents, donors, and surrogates through medical, psychological, and background screening.
- Communication and support: We provide emotional support during in vitro fertilization (IVF), pregnancy, and delivery, monitor surrogate well-being at every step, and share updates, photos, and key information with intended parents.
- Legal coordination: The legal aspect of surrogacy can be daunting for LGBTQ+ families, which is why we help manage payments through a secure escrow company, refer intended parents and surrogates to experienced reproductive attorneys, and ensure all parental documentation is completed and delivered to the hospital.
A Supportive Partner In Your Family-Building Journey
At the International Surrogacy Center, we prioritize transparency and inclusivity throughout the surrogacy process. We welcome all intended parents, including same-sex couples, transgender individuals, and other LGBTQ+ families. Over half of our staff have been surrogates or IVF patients themselves, which means we understand your hopes, fears, and needs firsthand.
While ending your surrogacy journey with a child in your arms is the most exciting outcome, surrogacy isn’t just about reaching that destination. The relationships you build along the way can be truly transformative. International Surrogacy Center is committed to fostering a relationship-driven environment where you can connect with others who understand your experience. These connections can provide invaluable support and camaraderie during what can sometimes feel like a lonely process.
