The concept of family is evolving – and at Ekmi Fertility, we welcome it! More single people than ever are entering our office and inquiring about IVF and surrogacy in India, eager to create their family on their own terms. Be you a single woman seeking to carry your own pregnancy, or a single man considering surrogacy, new, real and legally backed pathways to single parenthood now exist in India. Here’s what that really looks like.
Single Women and IVF: The Most Direct Path
For single women, IVF is typically the most direct path. An embryo is created using your own eggs (or donor eggs if needed) and donor sperm and transferred to your uterus. You carry the pregnancy. You are the legal mother when the baby is born.
What the process involves:
- Base-line evaluation with a fertility specialist (e.g., egg reserve, uterine status)
- Ovarian stimulation and egg retrieval (or selection of donor eggs)
- Selection of sperm donor from a certified, screened bank
- Fertilisation, embryo development, and transfer
- First trimester pregnancy monitoring
Usually, the time frame between initial consultation to embryo transfer is about 4-6 weeks depending on your cycle and protocol.
Single Men: IVF With a Surrogacy Mother
For single men, surrogacy is the path to parenthood. A donor egg is fertilised with your sperm, and then the embryo created this way is carried to term by a surrogacy mother. Biologically it is your child, legally ascribed from the beginning.
There have been major regulatory developments around surrogacy in India in recent years. When you choose Ekmi Fertility, your surrogacy doctor in India is aware of every change in the laws so that your journey remains safe at all times. We are a secure and guaranteed surrogacy program in India that caters to medical, legal and emotional support – single parents deserve the same certainty as anyone else.
What Single Parents Tend to Ask Us First
The questions aren’t just medical. They’re practical and deeply personal:
- Does my child will get any legal protections? Yes – if you have the appropriate documentation, you are the only legal parent.
- Can I introduce my own genetic material? Single women may use their own eggs, single men, their own sperm.
- Is donor identity disclosed? Sperm and egg donors in India are generally anonymous, although practices differ by clinic.
- What support exists after birth? Post-birth is included in every program at Ekmi Fertility – we’re not going to disappear after the birth.
The Financial Reality
IVF treatment costs as a single parent are similar to standard IVF cycles. Surrogacy costs can vary much more based on program and medical needs. Ekmi Fertility attains the recognition of best surrogacy clinic with affordable cost in India – we’re open about every rupee. At Ekmi Fertility, we’ve priced our surrogacy program so you get complete, quality care – without stretching your budget. Single-parent life through IVF or surrogacy isn’t second best. For many of our patients, it’s precisely the family they always imagined.
