Discovering that a natural pregnancy might not be an option can feel like the earth moving beneath you. Whether you are an OCI cardholder considering IVF and surrogacy as your route to parenthood or have already established that surrogacy is the way forward for your family, there is no doubt that the question of getting started leaves many prospective parents feeling anxious. At Ekmi Fertility, we have supported hundreds of families through this exact moment, knowing the first step is often the hardest. This post breaks down what that initial step really looks like.
You Don’t Have to Figure This Out Alone
We all know that starting this process while living abroad, managing visas, travel and time zones is a whole other thing – which probably doesn’t get spoken about enough. You’ll have the support of our team to coordinate it all so you can get back to creating your family.
Understanding Where You Stand
The Surrogacy (Regulation) Act, 2021 changed the face of surrogacy in India. At present, altruistic surrogacy is being offered to eligible Indian citizens and OCI cardholders with certain eligibility criteria. Instead of hiding behind legal terms, we meet with the family for a clear-cut consultation to tell them honestly what is available to them and where they are at.
Your First Three Steps
- Schedule a consultation with a fertility specialist. This is where you discuss your complete medical history, prior fertility treatments and family-building goals.
- Understand your surrogacy packages. Packages are designed to the unique medical and legal needs of every family, not a random solution.
- Get clarity on surrogacy cost. Cost for surrogacy in India will depend on medical protocols, number of embryo transfers and also additional services which are included. We have you covered on costs of surrogacy from day one with no surprises and honest conversations about what we can achieve here together.
