Someone surviving cancer is one of the strongest battle a person can fight. Then, as the treatment is over and slowly your life becomes yours again, a different grief comes in – that conceiving may not be so simple anymore. The consequences of chemotherapy, radiation, and surgeries on fertility can be particularly cruel. However, at Ekmi Fertility, our message to you is this: beating cancer does not mean bombing your dreams of having a baby. With the combined blessings of IVF and surrogacy, biological parenthood has not only been possible for many survivors but a tangible reality.
Why Cancer Treatment Affects Fertility
Cancer treatments are effective – but that potency sometimes comes with a price tag to lifelong reproductive health. Survivors may endure the following depending on treatment type, dosage, and age:
- Premature ovarian insufficiency or early menopause in women
- Male infertility which can either be low sperm count or motility
- Injury to the womb, rendering it unable to confidently support a pregnancy
- Hormonal imbalances led to embryo implantation issues
All of this does not mean that the door to parenthood is closed. Which means the journey just looks different – and here is where a good fertility specialist and an appropriate surrogacy doctor come in to make all of the difference.
How IVF and Surrogacy Help Cancer Survivors
IVF can create embryos if you banked eggs, sperm, or embryos before treatment – or your reproductive cells are still functional. That embryo then gets transferred into a surrogate mother, so you can have your own biological child without endangering your health.
This is how this process usually goes in Ekmi Fertility:
- A full fertility evaluation and review of your cancer history by a doctor
- Where there still are viable eggs and sperm, embryos are created outside the body (through IVF)
- Lengthy testing on genetically suitable embryos
- You are given a matched surrogate as screened mother
- End to end pregnancy management by our medical team
- Legal guidance to follow the surrogacy laws in India
Donor eggs or sperm may also enable surrogacy, even if you did not freeze anything before treatment. This will not give you a genetic connection through both parents – but many families created in this way feel no less whole.

FAQs
Q: Can I do IVF after cancer treatment?
This will depend on whether you had your eggs or sperm stored before treatment and what is currently going on with your reproductive health. Your fertility doctor will spend time evaluating this before making a pathway recommendation.
Q: What if I didn’t freeze my eggs or sperm before chemotherapy?
IVF can also work with donor eggs or sperm, and a surrogacy mother can carry the pregnancy. This is how many cancer survivors have gone on to build families.
Q: What is the surrogacy cost in India for cancer survivors?
According to what treatment plan is needed, the cost of surrogacy varies. But Ekmi Fertility’s surrogacy packages are clear-cut and helping affordable surrogacy be a reality instead of just a dream. We explain all the costs you will incur in advance with our team.
Q: Do surrogacy laws in India apply to cancer survivors?
Yes. According to India’s surrogacy laws, only eligible couples (which include cancer survivors) are allowed surrogacy. All steps taken are thoroughly documented and compliant (our legal team is involved).
