Common Surrogacy FAQs

There are many reasons you may have questions regarding surrogacy. Our goal at IVF Origen Agency is to ease any nerves you may have about the process to ensure you are able to fully enjoy this journey to parenthood. Some of the frequently asked questions our surrogacy professionals get include the following:

What Are the Different Types of Surrogacy?

There are two types of surrogacy, traditional and gestational. Traditional surrogacy is when the surrogate has a biological connection to the surrogate mother. Gestational surrogacy is when the surrogate does not have a biological connection to the child they are carrying for intended parents. IVF Origen Agency only offers gestational surrogacy services.

How Do Intended Parents Match With Qualified Surrogates?

The best way to match with a qualified surrogate is to contact our surrogacy professionals at IVF Origen Agency.

What Are the Legal Differences for Surrogacy in The United States and Mexico?

One of the factors that makes IVF Origen Agency unique from other surrogacy agencies is our partnership with surrogates in Mexico. Matching intended parents with surrogates in Mexico allows us to offer surrogacy services at a fraction of the cost you would pay elsewhere. Despite the significant price decrease,  intended parents may fear that they won’t fully understand or comply with the legal requirements of the host country. You can rest assured that our team of experienced surrogacy professionals will handle and manage all legal aspects of your surrogacy journey to ensure you are in compliance with all laws and regulations in place regarding surrogacy in Mexico and the United States.

How Much Contact Do Surrogates and Intended Parents Share Throughout the Journey?

The amount of contact you have with your surrogate will depend entirely on the individual relationship and the preferences of those involved. Most intended parents and surrogate partners find that they enjoy staying in touch before, during, and even after the journey. Others prefer less contact and will be content to go their separate ways after the child is born.

Who Are the Women Who Become Surrogates?

The surrogates we work with come from all different backgrounds.
