Gestational Surrogacy in Cyprus

Many biological and medical reasons prevent some women from carrying a child to term. There could be a number of reasons for this, including failure of the embryo to implant, repeated miscarriages, hysterectomy or a pelvic disorder. Some women experience problems such as dangerously high blood pressure, a heart condition or liver disease, so that pregnancy would entail a serious health risk for them. In some cases, the woman might have born without a uterus or may have had it surgically removed for health reasons. However, women with the aforementioned health problems are not the only people who suffer from childlessness. Same sex couples, especially gay men, are also not able to have their own child without a surrogate mother.

A surrogacy arrangement is one in which one woman (the surrogate mother) agrees to bear a child for a couple (the intended parents) and surrender it at birth. This provides an opportunity for those who are unable to carry a child themselves to overcome their childlessness. There are quite a number of things to be considered before going down this road, however. Even though couples longing for children tend to be more emotional, these emotions should not be reflected upon their decisions. Surrogacy is a delicate matter which needs to be handled very carefully. At North Cyprus Fertility Clinic, we make sure our patients understand the legal, financial and the emotional aspects of consulting surrogacy as an option.

Surrogacy is not legal in many countries, including Northern Cyprus. However, due to a large volume of our patients from neighboring countries, we have decided to establish links with a renowned and a prestigious fertility clinic in Washington DC, United States, which specializes in IVF practices as well as surrogacy arrangements for gay and straight couples. We collaborate with attorney Hilary Neeimann of the United States for provision of surrogacy services to our patients. What we do for our patients is, we run the preliminary work here at our clinic. Patients are able to complete their initial medication stage here in Cyprus at our clinic, where we provide them with free of charge hotel accommodation, airport travels and domestic transfers. Hence, they can avoid large costs of travelling to the United States frequently.
A potential surrogate mother must be in good overall health and be able to undergo a pregnancy with the minimum amount of risk to her own health. Some medical conditions will prevent a woman becoming a surrogate mother, for example, if there are any known medical problems which could lead to complications with the pregnancy, or put the woman at risk. Also those who are considerably overweight, are heavy smokers, drinkers or substance abusers are not suitable as surrogate mothers because of the associated risks both to the woman and the baby. A the risks of illness and problems are much higher in the first pregnancy it is strongly recommended that surrogate mothers should have borne at least one child previously and preferably have completed her own family. This also means that the woman is able to give her “informed” consent to the arrangement, since a woman who has experienced pregnancy prior to the surrogacy arrangement has that knowledge on which to base her decision.

North Cyprus IVF can organize and coordinate surrogacy IVF treatment 100% backed by the US legal system for straight and same-sex couples.

  1. For couples struggling with infertility where the woman is not able to carry a child, surrogacy is a wonderful option to build a family.
