Gay surrogacy in India just might be the answer for many same-sex couples to have families like other couples. Unlike several other countries in the world, gay surrogacy agencies in India are able to provide services to couples from other parts of the globe who dream of starting their families by having a child.
 
 

Same-sex Surrogacy in India

One of the reasons many gay couples travel to this South Asian country is that same-sex surrogacy in India is accepted and welcomed, so that surrogacy centres are able to open their doors to couples who may not be eligible to apply in other surrogacy destinations. It is not uncommon to find two men or two women in India processing their applications or finally visiting to witness the birth of their child and processing the baby’s papers so they can take him home to their own country. For many gay couples, India fulfils their need to have kids, without the stigma they may suffer from cultures that are not as welcoming as Indian culture is.
 
 

Cost of Gay Surrogacy in India

The cost of surrogacy in India for gays is very low compared to most other parts of the world. Of course, the final cost depends on the procedures that need to be done, and in special cases there might be additional expenses. However, in general cases surrogacy cost in India can be less than 50% of the prices in other countries offering surrogacy. Despite the low prices, Indian surrogacy clinics are also among the best in the world, with their success rates comparable to centres that operate in first-world countries.
 
Some of the reasons why India is able to offer lower priced surrogacy are:

• The lower cost of living means that surrogate mother fees are much lower, and the same is true for the cost of medical procedures related to the pregnancy, including the care that surrogate mothers receive while pregnant.

• Surrogacy centres offer packages that significantly lower the prices, as couples can pay for the process as a whole instead of paying separately for each step in the process.

• Because of the advancing medical tourism industry, many Indian surrogacy agencies have sprung up. They now have to offer competitive prices to attract more couples to their services.

Quality of Surrogacy in India

Thousands of people opt for India surrogacy for gay couples because of the excellent quality of healthcare in the region. Their surrogacy clinics are equipped with the latest in fertility technologies, and are comparable with the ones found in more advanced countries like the US and Canada. Because of the excellent success rates and low prices, couples from the US, UK, Australia, the Middle East, and other parts of the world come to India for surrogacy.

Whether it is a couple with reproductive issues, a gay couple or a single person desirous of experiencing the joys of parenthood, surrogacy can provide the perfect solution. And with rapid advances in assisted reproductive technology and relatively low costs, surrogacy for mixed-race couple in India is an attractive option. Since commercial surrogacy is either illegal in several countries such as Canada and Australia, while being prohibitively expensive in the U.S., increasing numbers of childless couples are embarking on their journey to parenthood through surrogacy in India.
 
According to a 2010 study entitled “Surrogacy in America” by Magdalina Gugucheva of the Council for Responsible Genetics, gestational surrogacy (IVF surrogacy) has grown by almost 89% from 2004 to 2008 in the United States. As increasing number of couples consider surrogacy a viable option, they are seeking out surrogacy agencies in India to help them realize their dreams of parenthood.
 
 

What Is Surrogacy?

Surrogacy is a mutually agreed upon, usually legal, arrangement in which a woman ‘lends’ her womb to carry the child of another woman/same-sex couples. According to WebMD, this form of assisted reproductive technology (ART) can be done through the following methods:

• Traditional surrogacy: The surrogate mother is impregnated with the sperm of the father or donor sperm using artificial insemination. Since the surrogate is also the biological mother of the child, traditional surrogacy is fraught with legal hurdles and is banned in several countries.

• Gestational surrogacy: Rapid advances in in-vitro fertilization (IVF) now makes it possible to place an embryo—created from the harvested egg of the mother (or donor egg) and sperm of the father—in the uterus of the surrogate mother. This form of surrogacy is less legally complicated since the birth mother has no biological claim on the baby.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has reported that about 10% of American women (6.1 million) aged between 15 and 44 years are unable to conceive or carry a baby while roughly 4.7 million American men are infertile. Given such statistics, it is easy to see why increasing numbers of hopeful couples including interracial couples  are heading to India for surrogacy.
