Though uncommon,there are some circumstances where a set of homosexual intended mothers would seek a surrogate mother. The reason this is rare is that with two women,the chances of both experiencing fertility problems becomes rarer.

Single intended parents: Occasionally an unmarried man or woman will enter into commercial surrogacy.The reasons for an unmarried woman to seek a surrogate are usually the same as that of a male/female couple,but for the single male,he is most likely ready to start a family,and has not found the perfect partner.

Embryo Adoption
Adoption is an act of love,fulfilled by the courage of couples who want to share their love with children.Embryo adoption is life-giving love in action in an age of technology.Egg and embryo donation are types of fertility treatment used to help infertile couples to conceive.Egg donation is when eggs from a donor are fertilised with your partner’s sperm in a laboratory dish. The resulting embryos are then transferred to the uterus of the needing couple.Embryo adoption is the newest technology of family-building, which combines assisted reproductive technology with adoption, so that instead of adopting a baby, infertile couples adopt an embryo.

IVF is the step suggested by the infertility specialist when infertile couple get exhausted with all the other ways of trying to get pregnant.In an ivf cycle normally more then one embryos are created.After transferring the fertilised embryo into the womb of the women,remaining embryos of good quality are frozen for the future use.These embryos may be used for failed ivf cycle,future pregnancy or to help infertile couples by donating them.

Thus Embryo Adoption is simply the adoption of frozen embryos donated by another couple.These embryos are frozen and are a
source of hope for others who want to add children to their family.There are now more than 600,000 embryos in frozen storage
in the United States: a 54% increase over the previous census in 2002.More couples are choosing to donate embryos.Embryo
adoption is a viable and affordable adoption choice.

The process of embryo adoption is suitable for following prospective intended parents.

* Couples and singles who are pre-disposed to adoption as a way of bringing a family's love to a child in need.
* Couples who are infertile.
* Concerned couple is at a high risk of passing on genetic disorders to offspring.
* Had recurrent IVF failures.
* If You are looking for an alternative to fertility treatments such as IVF or donor egg recipient IVF.
* ARE unable to afford IVF or other methods of treatment.
* Unable to carry to term full pregnancy.
* Those who do not wish to go through the expensive and emotionally exhausting process of adopting a newborn.

Now couples can fulfill their desire for a family, give birth to the very child they adopted as a tiny,frozen embryo and ensure that a precious life is preserved at the same time.

What is the difference between the embryo adoption and traditional adoption?

Embryo adoption is simply another choice available to families who are interested in adopting a child.Biologically,embryo adoption is exactly the same as a traditional adoption.The child and the parents have no genetic linkage.The most obvious difference between an embryo adoption and a traditional adoption is the pregnancy experience.In traditional adoption child is adopted after the birth.In embryo adoption adoptive mothers are able to experience the joys of pregnancy,labor and birth.Parents who adopt embryos are able to begin the bonding process with their child before they are born.They are giving frozen embryos an opportunity for life.The embryos belong to the adopting parents before they are placed in the womb of the mother and the donating parents relinquish all parental rights.The child born to the adopting couple is their legal child.
In addition,embryo adoption may be much more affordable than traditional adoption. Embryo adoption also offers couples
privacy and secrecy,so that they do not need to worry about societal acceptance of their adopted child.

Is surrogacy different from embryo adoption and donation?

Yes,in surrogacy,an agreement is made for embryos to be transferred into a woman's uterus,and she carries the pregnancy for
the benefit of the infertile couple.The intended parents or the infertile couples are specifically making embryos in vitro for placement into the surrogate using either their own genetics or purchases donor genetics.Compare that to embryo adoption and donation,where the adopting mother herself carries the child or children.The placing couple relinquishes their rights to any children born from the embryos prior to the transfer of those embryos into the adoptive mother's womb. The child that the adopting mother carries and gives birth to is the child that she and the adopting father will parent.In simple words in surrogacy,a woman carries a pregnancy for the benefit of the infertile couple.In embryo adoption,the child that the couple carries is the child that they will parent.

How does embryo donation and embryo adoption work?

An anonymous donation occurs when donors and recipients do not know one other's identities.No contact is made between the donor or the recipient, either in the present or in the future. Anonymous donation most often takes place through a fertility clinic,but may be facilitated by an adoption agency.The recipient couple does not even need to inform their obstetrician that they achieved their pregnancy through embryo adoption.Most clinics that have an embryo donation program provide very limited information to the recipients about the donors.

Donors are rarely involved in the process of selecting recipients, but are sometimes permitted to set stipulations for eligibility to receive their donation. Medical information about the donated embryos is provided to the recipient. Occasionally,a "semi-open" arrangement is used in which the parties know family and other information about each other, but their real names and locating information are withheld, in order to provide a layer of privacy protection. In an open
adoption both the parties know each other on a first and last names, and be able to have contact with each other,on mutually agreed upon terms.

Embryo adoption costs are primarily paid by the adopting family. Generally the donating family does not receive payment for their donation nor should they expect the recipient family to cover any of the IVF expenses they incurred. Embryo storage costs prior to the match are also the responsibility of the donor family. The recipient family may be asked to pay for storage fees after the match is made.

How many embryos to transfer?

The number of embryos available to transfer will be based on the ARSM guidelines and the donor woman’s age at the time the
embryos were created. It cannot ensure that each embryo transfer will become a baby. One easy way of improving the chances of
achieving a pregnancy in an IVF cycle is by transferring more embryos. However the risk of having a multiple pregnancy also
increases. Adopting families should limit the number of embryos transferred to the number that they are willing to carry to term in the event that all the embryos implant. Some embryo adoption programs specifically require their adopting families to agree to transfer all thawed and viable embryos and to not selectively reduce the number of embryos that have begun developing. Due to the high-risk nature of a multiple pregnancy, most doctors recommend limiting the number of embryos transferred to no more than three embryos at a time. This is something adopting families should discuss with their doctor prior to their scheduled embryo transfer.

The process of matching donated embryos with adopting family.

Once it is decided to proceed with embryo adoption then the matching of donating and adopting parents begin.The matching
process includes the following steps:

1] Both donating and adopting parents provide the adoption agency or attorney with information about themselves and indicate the type of adopting/donating family they desire.

2] Donating parents indicate their preferences regarding the age, income, post-birth work plans, religion, prior marriages , existing children in the family, and race of the adopting families as well as their desire for future contact.

3] Both donating and adopting parents has to go through several medical test,infectious disease screening and genetic test.

Assuming an adopting family matches these criteria, their introductory letter, biography, and photographs are sent to the
donating parents for consideration and possible selection. The donating parents' profile information (introductory letter, biography and photographs), and medical health history are sent to the adopting family for their consideration and possible selection. There are additional ways for donating and adopting parents to be matched. Some fertility clinics will facilitate the matching process, or matches sometimes come about through word of mouth or by searching the Internet. After all screening has been completed the recipient couple may proceed with a cycle. Once this matching is done adopting family doctor will receive the embryology reports, freezing and thawing protocols and all infectious disease screening results. If the embryos were created with an egg and/ or sperm donor information on the donor(s) will also be sought. The clinic will be decided to perform a frozen embryo transfer (FET) using those embryos. The number of embryos to be thawed and transferred
should be mutually agreed upon. Legal contract will also be coordinated.

What if donating parents change their minds after embryo donation?

The legal agreement is signed by both the donating and adopting parties. Hence the risk of the donor parents changing their
minds regarding their donation is ruled out. The donating family contractually transfers their ownership and parental rights
by signing an agreement prior to the embryos being shipped to the adopting family's clinic. The contract agreement and relinquishment forms are legally binding between the two families. Once the embryos have been transferred, the donating parents have no legal claim to any resulting children, nor any responsibility for them.

Embryo adoption is an alternative for infertile couples who need egg or sperm donation.The best results with embryo adoptions
are with fresh embryo adoptions, which are done with a Donor Egg IVF Program. Embryo adoption offers the unique opportunity
to be pregnant,to bond with their child prior to birth, and to give birth. In addition, embryo adoption may be much more affordable than traditional adoption in the countries like the US. Also in India, certain groups such as Christians and Muslims cannot adopt. Embryo adoption can be an extremely attractive option for them. Embryo adoption is an alternative for infertile couples who need egg or sperm donation.

At Rotunda Clinic in India, we handle embryo donation like a closed adoption. There is absolutely no contact between the donor couple and the recipients, who never see each other. The recipient couple does not even need to inform their obstetrician that they achieved their pregnancy through embryo adoption! Unlike traditional adoption, the couple does not have to go through a legal process to adopt, but do so through medical treatment.

Surrogacy in India, Surrogacy Clinic India
Pregnancy is not possible for everyone. There are many infertile couples who cannot attain parenthood after trying to conceive for more than one year. There are many reasons attached with these infertility either in men or in women or in both and sometimes there is unexplained infertility. Couples keen to take the first steps on the path of parenthood, or singles seeking the joys of bringing up a young life are taking the help of surrogacy and surrogate mothers to realize their parenthood dreams. Individuals and couples, who have tried and failed to get pregnant, often seek solace in surrogacy.

Surrogacy is an arrangement in which a woman is hired to carry and deliver a child for a couple or for some individual. Depending on sperm and egg sources, different cases of surrogacy fall under different categories. Normally surrogacy is of two types, Gestational Surrogacy and Traditional Surrogacy.

Traditional Surrogacy:

In this method surrogate’s own eggs and another man’s sperm are used. It is done via artificial insemination. It is also known as Natural Surrogacy. Surrogacy laws & medical ethics board in many countries, including India and USA, do not consent to this practice of surrogacy.

Gestational Surrogacy:

In this, fertilized eggs from a third party donor or the intending mother are implanted into the surrogate's uterus. This is done by in vitro fertilization. Gestational surrogacy in India can be a good option for people looking to start parenthood, but unable to do so the natural way. The woman hired to carry the pregnancy to delivery has no genetic relationship with the embryo, which is transferred to her uterus. When done for financial reasons, the arrangement is known as Gestational commercial surrogacy.

Gestational surrogacy is mainly opted by most of the couples because traditional surrogacy is illegal in many countries, in natural surrogacy the intending mother is not genetically related to the off spring and in traditional surrogacy, the surrogate mother may have emotional attachment and may refuse to part with the child leading to medico-legal issues.

The possible reasons why the couples opt to go for surrogacy program.

1. Single Men, single women and same sex couples.
2. Uterus has been removed because of some medical reasons.
3. The mother cannot carry the baby due to some medical condition.
4. Lower or poor sperm count in husband.
5. Women without uterus or where Woman’s uterus is malformed or damaged and is incapable of carrying a pregnancy to term.
6. Woman is suffering from medical problems such as diabetes, heart and kidney diseases and pregnancy in her would be life threatening.
7. The problem of repeated miscarriages and failed IVF cycles.
8. Ovulation problem due to premature menopause.
9. Woman has some genetic disease, and there is a fear that same may be passed to her offspring.

Besides these, there may be a few other situations in which people opt for surrogacy. In some cases, the social mother, despite being fertile and healthy, opts to arrange for a surrogate only because it allows her the convenience of avoiding pregnancy, labor, and delivery pains. However, this type of surrogacy arrangement is not preferred most of the time.

Surrogacy and the Surrogate Mother
Surrogate motherhood is one of many forms of Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ARTs) that have developed in response to the increasing number of individuals/couples who find themselves unable to conceive a child on their own. Surrogate motherhood involves the services of a woman who agrees to carry/gestate a child with the intention of surrendering that child to the intending/commissioning couple upon the birth of the child. The demand for surrogate motherhood is created by a diagnosis of female infertility, although a woman need not be infertile in order to employ the services of a surrogate.

Factors that have contributed to the popularization of surrogate motherhood and other reproductive technologies are both medical and social in nature. A diagnosis of infertility is defined as the inability of a heterosexual couple to produce a pregnancy after one year of regular intercourse, that is,unprotected intercourse. The social factors that have contributed to the rise in the rates of infertility and that have resulted in an increase in the demand for reproductive technologies are the trend toward later marriages and the tendency for growing numbers of women to delay having children until later in their reproductive years. With advances in reproductive medicine, couples who would not have been able to reproduce in the past are now able to have children who are completely or partially genetically related to them.

Surrogate motherhood has come a long way in the history of surrogacy. From rarely spoken of traditional surrogacy’s of centuries past, to family members acting as surrogate carriers and commercial surrogacy of today, the road has been longhand many miracles and hardships have been faced along the way. It will be interesting to see what will happen to the history of surrogacy in the next 20,50 or 100 years. Normally surrogate mothers are of two types.

1). Traditional surrogate: The surrogate mother is also the biological mother. The surrogate is inseminated (usually artificially) with the intended father’s sperm.

2). Gestational surrogate: Both the egg and sperm of the intended parents are joined and the pre-embryo(s) are placed into the surrogate who will carry and deliver the child. The gestational surrogate has no genetic link to the child.

Surrogates are rewarded for helping an infertile couple realize their dreams of becoming parents. They are also compensated, and in addition, all legal, medical, maternity clothes, child care (if necessary), transportation and other costs related to the arrangement will be paid by the intended parents.

It is very crucial decision to decide about surrogate mother for both intended parents and for surrogate herself. Surrogate has to go through stringent selection process. When it is about surrogate and a baby, no compromise is made. A lot depends on the approach, thought process, medical condition of the surrogate that is selected. Surrogate must love to be pregnant.

Every step is planned, designed and standardized for all potential surrogates. They are initially counseled and educated about the surrogacy program and the responsibilities it carries along with. Following are the few requirements that a surrogate has to fulfill before entering into any surrogacy contract.

1. Detailed Interview (verbal & written): surrogate has to go through a detailed set of investigations regarding her education, family life, financial conditions, her need to become a surrogate and many more.

2. Psychological analysis: She has to pass a psychological screening by a mental health professional to uncover any issues with giving up the baby after birth. This is carried out to make sure she is ready to become a carrier and is comfortable with the arrangement.

3. Reliable support system from family, friends, and work environment: It is equally important that surrogate has the support of her family, husband and friends. It is necessary to know whether she is doing it on her will or she is forced to become surrogate because of the financial benefits..

4. Investigations / screening for surrogate: Once a surrogate is decided she has to go through lots of test. It is advised that a surrogate have a complete medical evaluation and pregnancy history to assess the likelihood of a healthy, full-term pregnancy. Screening for infectious diseases such as syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, HIV, cytomegalovirus, and hepatitis B and C is also done. Surrogates also need screening for immunity to measles, rubella, and chickenpox. A medical procedure to visually "map" the normal structures of the uterus is also advised. This is to evaluate the potential to carry a pregnancy.

5. Background Investigation: This is done to know whether surrogate or her family has any criminal records. It is also done to validate the information, the surrogate has provided.

6. Age limit: the surrogate has to be between the age of 21 to 35 years.

7. The surrogate must have already given birth to at least one healthy baby so she understands first-hand the medical risks of pregnancy and childbirth and the emotional issues of bonding with a newborn. Surrogate should not have experienced any major pregnancy complications in her previous delivery.

8. Surrogate shouldn't be prone to any kind of unwanted habits like smoking, drinking or drugs. It is also seen that she is not used to excessive caffeine.

Once the choice for the surrogate is narrowed down the final step is to make and sign the surrogacy contract. It is important to remember that intended parents are selecting a surrogate and the surrogate mother is also choosing you. Both the parties are ready to sign the contract. Pay special attention to the details of the surrogacy contract, to make sure it includes everything that has been agreed upon, including the fee. To protect your rights as parents-to-be and the rights of the child you're hoping to have, hire an attorney well-versed in reproductive rights. The attorney can write a surrogacy contract. The contract should clearly state the obligations of the surrogate mother and the parents-to-be. Such a legal contract may help if legal issues arise after birth. Along with any financial arrangements, a surrogate contract outlines agreements about all possible outcomes of the pregnancy, For instance, what will happen if a multiple pregnancy, such as the birth of triplets, occurs. Once this phase is complete, the contract will be signed by all parties and all the surrogates payments, if she were to become pregnant, are deposited in an account to make sure all payments to the surrogate are promptly and accurately made. This summarizes some of the primary duties of the surrogate mother.

An enterprise known as reproductive outsourcing is a new but rapidly expanding business in India. Clinics that provide surrogate mothers for foreigners say they have recently been inundated with requests from the United States and Europe, as word spreads of India’s mix of skilled medical professionals, relatively liberal laws and low prices of medical services and surrogate mothers.

Commercial surrogacy, which is banned in some states and some European countries, was legalized in India in 2002. The cost comes to about $25,000, roughly a third of the typical price in the United States. That includes the medical procedures, payment to the surrogate mother, which is often, but not always, done through the clinic, plus air tickets and hotels for two trips to India (one for the fertilization and a second to collect the baby).

Surrogacy is an act of love, but also a financial transaction, that brings people together like this. In India surrogates do it to give their children a better education, to buy a home, to start up a small business, a shop, to repay their debts and to have a better lifestyle. It is two people who are helping out each other. There are no firm statistics on how many surrogacy’s are being arranged in India for foreigners, but anecdotal evidence suggests a sharp increase. Under guidelines issued by the Indian Council of Medical Research, surrogate mothers sign away their rights to any children. A surrogate’s name is not even on the birth certificate. This eases the process of taking the baby out of the country.

The clinic, known more formally as Rotunda — The Center for Human Reproduction based in Mumbai India is one such clinic that offers customized surrogacy and affordable surrogacy packages to people of all nationalities. All couples including lesbian and gay couples and even single men and single women can avail this facility to fulfill their dream of enjoying parenthood.

Surrogacy in India and Indian Surrogacy Laws
A law to regulate India’s multi-billion dollar assisted reproduction industry has been in the works for some time. The draft Assisted Reproductive Technologies Regulation Bill-2010 will be presented to Parliament this winter, and even many inside the ART industry are eager to see it come to fruition. The first-of-its-kind Bill to control and monitor cases of surrogacy in the country has been drafted by the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare,along with the Indian Council for Medical Research (ICMR) and has been sent to the law
ministry for approval.

India has become a major destination for foreign couples to hire surrogates to bear their children. This has been made possible by the legalization of commercial surrogacy in India in 2002. It has also been facilitated by the lack of stringent laws on surrogacy India and its low cost in the country. While surrogacy in the US may cost around $50,000 to $100,000, it costs only around $ 25,000 in India. Besides, India offers advanced medical care facilities and the added advantage is that most doctors speak English and can communicate well with foreign couples. In fact, commercial surrogacy in India is all set to become a $2.3 billion-worth industry. Couples, including gay and lesbian couples, from all over the world, have benefited from the surrogacy options available in the country.

India may have been a booming center of ‘reproductive tourism’ for several years, but it took the complicated case of Japanese baby Manji — born to an Indian surrogate mother — to bring into relief the fact that the law hasn’t managed to catch up with the burgeoning
baby industry. But this is set to change now, with India set to be the only country in the world to legalize commercial surrogacy. The proposed rent-a-womb law, if passed in the parliamentary session, will clearly be one of the friendliest laws on surrogacy in the
world.

India's booming, and much publicized, surrogacy industry may soon feel the effects of significant regulatory developments. The 35-page bill seeks to regulate India's heavily market-driven fertility industry, and introduces a number of policies ranging from clinic regulation to restrictions on ART access.

Some points that are worth noticeable in Indian Surrogacy Bill ,which the bill formally includes are:

1) Surrogacy shall not be available to "patients for whom it would normally be possible to carry a baby to term."

2) Surrogacy contracts shall be legally enforceable.

3) Married women need their husband's consent in order to become a surrogate.

4) Surrogates shall not undergo embryo transfer more than three times for the same couple.

5) Egg donor identities shall remain strictly confidential.

6) There shall be a detailed accreditation process for fertility clinics and gamete donor banks.

7) The Department of Health Research shall establish and manage a "national ART registry."

8) The only "couples" eligible for ART shall be those "having a sexual relationship that is legal in India." (This would
apparently exclude gay couples.)

9) Foreigners seeking surrogacy services must provide written proof that their home country "permits surrogacy, and the child born through surrogacy in India, will be permitted entry in the country." (This would apparently exclude people from Canada and a number of European countries that specifically prohibit commercial surrogacy, and could exclude people from countries that don't explicitly permit it.)

10) The bill also calls for the formation of both national and state advisory boards composed of Health Department workers,
industry representatives, scientists, and other civil society members. These boards are charged with operational zing and
enforcing the many guidelines enumerated in the bill.

11) The ICMR's ART Bill, 2010, has put in place several important provisions.It says a woman acting as a surrogate mother in
India cannot be less than 21 years or over 35 years. Also, she cannot give more than five live births, including her own
children.

12) The Bill mandates the appointment of a local guardian in case of surrogacy arrangements where the intended couple is staying outside India. This local guardian will be legally obliged to take delivery of the child born of the surrogacy arrangement if the intended couple does not do so.

It is yet unclear to what extent the 2010 bill's language, and more importantly, its interpretation, implementation and enforcement if passed will address these and other social justice and health concerns. The implications for reproductive tourism are undoubtedly huge, and will certainly be shaped by the forthcoming responses from international commercial ART/surrogacy agencies, rights groups, and other civil society voices.

The finalized bill's implications for certain groups, especially LGBT communities and foreigners seeking surrogacy in India, are turning heads already. Depending on how its rules on surrogacy are interpreted and enforced, the legislation would disqualify gay couples, both foreign and domestic, as well as individuals or couples from countries such as the UK, Canada and Germany where the practice of commercial surrogacy is illegal. Such steps in India, the commercial epicenter of what has turned into a global business,would drastically affect the global politics of reproduction "for hire."

The Future of Indian Laws on Surrogacy India and Gay Couples.

Indian laws on surrogacy are not clear. However, as the government plans to pass the Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART)
bill, this uncertainty will change. The ART bill will regulate In-Vitro Fertilization (IVF) and exclude gay couples from hiring surrogates in India. This is because the government of India has not legalized gay relationships, although it has been decriminalized by the Delhi High Court. Further, surrogacy for gay couples will be an option only after the country legalizes gay relationships. The bill also provides for prohibiting IVF clinics from conducting surrogacy transactions.Instead, it plans to set up special ART banks that will track reproductive donors and surrogate mothers.

The bill’s stipulations about who is eligible to use assisted reproductive services are also problematic. It states that ARTs will be available to all married or unmarried couples as well as single people, but defines “couple” as two persons “having a sexual relationship that is legal in India,”where homosexuality has been decriminalized but not legalized. “Married” and “unmarried” couples are also defined as those in marriages or relationships that are legal in the country where they are citizens. Accordingly the ambiguous language makes it unclear whether assisted reproductive technologies would be available for gay couples, and particularly for Indian gay couples.

As the world's media seems intent on declaring that forthcoming legislation in India will effectively ban gay couples from becoming parents through surrogacy, the question arises as to exactly what foundation these claims have. Drafts of the Assisted Reproductive Technology (Regulation) Bill 2010, which has been in process since 2008 and includes recommendations dating as far back as 2005, have thus far not explicitly stated one way or another whether gay couples will be eligible under the proposed rules.

Thus from these concepts we can only draw the conclusion that a gay couple may fall short of the requirements of being a
"couple" for the purposes of this Bill, but may be acknowledged as being married, or unmarried depending on their legal
status in their home country. In fact it would seem that in adding these more specific references to types of relationships or relationship status that are legal in countries other than India, that there is an increased possibility for gay couples to be eligible for surrogacy under the terms of what may become the new laws that govern this area of medicine.

The Bill therefore makes no specific stipulations about gay couples entering in to a surrogacy agreement, apart from their being generally eligible as one of the defined groups from Section 32 (1). Furthermore, both individuals who make up the "commissioning" couple must be party to the legally binding contract that will be drawn up.

Unless specific changes are made during the passing of this Bill, it is difficult to see how the current content will preclude or prejudice gay couples.

The ART bill also provides that foreign couples obtain a document from their embassy stating that the surrogate child will be granted the countries citizenship. This document is a must-have for securing a surrogacy agreement with any ART clinic. The clause, however, may hinder the prospects for couples coming from countries that do not recognize surrogacy.

Regardless of how the bill moves forward, there is an ongoing boon in the Art industry and commercial surrogacy in India.

Becoming a proud parent with the help of Third Party Reproduction involves a considerable financial and emotional investment. The surrogacy treatment cost is very economical in India as compared to the cost involved in European countries. The best medical facility and the use of latest technology in the treatment aided by renowned team of doctors and the well trained clinic staff has made India the favorable spot among the foreigners for surrogacy journey.

IVF Procedure, IVF Cycle, IVF Cost
Infertility is termed as failure to conceive after months of trying for pregnancy without the use of any contraceptives. When you are diagnosed with infertility then the first thing you need to find out is the reason behind this infertility. IVF treatment is pursued once other treatments have failed to achieve pregnancy. Starting IVF treatment can be an exciting but nerve wracking experience. IVF treatment is the very first treatment tried when an egg donor is being used, there are severe cases of male infertility or a woman's fallopian tubes are blocked.

IVF treatment is often successful, though, it may take more than one try. Studies show that the potential for success with IVF treatment is the same for up to four cycles. IVF treatment is quite stressful. Just looking over the schedule of ultrasounds, blood work, injections and so on can make you feel fragile. Even the fertility drugs may change your moods.

Infertility and IVF can be pretty stressful and at times you may feel sad and worried; you and your partner may even struggle in your relationship together.

Following question and answers will help you to easily manage your IVF treatment.

What is the history and success of IVF?

The first successful IVF pregnancy in the world occurred in England in 1978 by Doctors Step toe and Edwards. Now, almost thirty years later, IVF is accepted as a standard treatment and in many cases as a first-line treatment for infertility, resulting in the birth of more than one million babies worldwide.

Is IVF treatment required for you?

IVF is recommended for women with blocked tubes or missing fallopian tubes and it is the best treatment available. It is also used when other conditions are present, including endometriosis, male factor infertility and unexplained infertility in which no medical cause for infertility can be found.

What is the age limit for women to undergo IVF treatment?

Successful pregnancy outcome with treatment is largely related to female age, particularly when using the woman's own eggs. Most clinics have a certain upper age limit after which they will not perform in vitro fertilization (IVF) with the woman's own eggs. The age limit for ivf treatment is somewhere between 42 and 45 in most programs. When donor eggs are being used, the age of the egg donor is the important issue. With egg donation, the age of the recipient does not seem to affect the chances of success. There are instances of pregnancy with the age above 60 also.

What’s involved in IVF?

IVF is a complex procedure. That is why prior to undergoing IVF treatment, patients have an IVF orientation with their physician who will fully explain the IVF process, including pre-IVF investigations and processes. All IVF patients will receive instructions on the proper timing and administration of the fertility medications involved in the IVF treatment cycle.

Whether to transfer one embryo or more than that?

It is in the hands of the patients to decide how many embryos to transfer. It cannot be ensured that each embryo transfer will become a baby. One easy way of improving the chances of achieving a pregnancy in an IVF cycle is by transferring more embryos. However the risk of having a multiple pregnancy also increases with more embryos transferred. Normally the number of embryos to be transferred should be decided based on patients age and how many times they have tried IVF previously. If you are under 35 and have never tried IVF before, then transfer of 2 embryos is suggested.

How can you improve the chances of IVF Treatment?

If a success is required in an ivf cycle one should avoid alcohol and tobacco, medications, lose weight and maintain BMI, avoid caffeine or control its consumption, follow balanced diet and take folic acid supplements. IVF treatment should be started early as the age plays an important role.

When to go for pregnancy test after IVF Treatment?

About two weeks after embryo transfer blood test is carried out to find whether the treatment has worked. If the test is positive, first pregnancy scan is taken two weeks later. If the test is negative, you need to talk to your doctor and decide whether to try the treatment again.

How long should one wait after failure of IVF Cycle?

Medically, you can usually start up again immediately in your next cycle. Many clinics advise to take break for 2 or 3 months.

Is hospitalization required in IVF procedure?

A patient undergoing IVF does not require admission in the hospital. The patient has to visit the center 3-5 times during monitoring cycle. On the day of egg collection Patients can go home after the effect of anesthesia weans off which takes about 2-3 hours. After the embryo transfer, which again takes about half an hour patients are free to go home after resting for one hour.

Is in vitro fertilization treatment expensive?

This price will vary depending on where you live, the amount of medications you're required to take, the number of IVF cycles you undergo, and the amount your insurance company will pay toward the procedure. Compared to the UK and USA, IVF treatment is much economical in India, and the quality of the treatment is excellent. This is because doctor’s charge very less as compared to the developed western countries. As per international standards, IVF in India is very cost-effective and more and more foreigners are travelling to India for availing ivf treatment.

Studies show that the potential for success with IVF treatment is the same for up to four cycles. Generally, the live birth rate for each IVF cycle is 30 to 35% for women under age 35, 25% for women between the ages of 35 and 37, 15 to 20% for women between the ages of 38 and 40 and 6 to 10% for women after age 40. (When an egg donor is used, however, success rates remain high even at age 40, with a 45% success rate.)

Surrogacy to assists intended parents
Since 2002, when the practice was legalized, India has come to be renowned for yet another factor, i.e., "surrogacy tourism".

Gestational surrogacy is helping couples have their own babies, many times biologically related, when one of the partners of the couples are infertile or have other related problems. A gestational surrogate mother is hired or contracted usually in this form of surrogacy.

The desire to procreate is a very fundamental attribute of the human race. Sadly though, many are denied the joy of parenthood due to several reasons, biological or otherwise. With the developments in reproductive sciences and technologies the barriers to parenthood are no longer as formidable as they once were.

There are a lot of Indian couples that benefit from fertility clinics around India. For those who cannot conceive, there are surrogate mothers for hire. One of India’s A-list actors Aamir Khan and his wife Kiran Rao are one of the prominent people to have had babies via surrogacy.But not everyone in India can afford to bear the costs of availing this facility.

Australian, American and UK couples and singles are paying to overseas surrogates to fulfill their dreams of having a family, some risking jail in doing so, fuelling calls for surrogacy laws in Australia to be overhauled.

New figures indicate the number of Australian couples travelling overseas - to India, the United States to have children through surrogacy has tripled in three years.

According to Surrogacy Australia, a Melbourne-based advocacy group for parents using surrogacy, a survey of 14 surrogacy agencies overseas this year found the number of babies born on behalf of Australians jumped from 97 in 2009 to 269 last year. Already, 254 Australian surrogate babies have been born this year, the group says.

Official figures show only 19 children were born in Australia last year under regulated altruistic surrogacy arrangements, in which the surrogate mother offers her services free but the intended parents pay medical costs.

Desperate couples felt they had no choice but to head overseas because surrogacy was such a legal "nightmare" in Australia.

Many childless couples are seeking surrogacy deals in India, where the number of Australian babies born to surrogates leapt from 47 in 2009 to 179 last year, according to the survey.

"For many parents, the prospect of having their child kept from them is so terrifying, few are willing to take the risk"

"It is a common misconception that surrogacy is for rich people too busy to have kids. That couldn't be further from the truth. So many of our parents have tried for years through IVF and adoption, and are desperate."

Some gestational surrogacy programs even help gay couples to have children of their own and have the children related to them biologically. Generally, the gay couple has to prove that they are committed to their relationship, for their application to be approved.

The romance between India and gay / LGBT tourists is growing and, cashing in on the interest, many Indian and international gay travel agencies are keenly pursuing the market by organising surrogacy packages and special deals to cater to this niche segment.

India is slowly but surely catching up on the LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender) travel radar as a preferred destination due to its culture, spirituality, awesome destinations and history and latest to create a gay family.

Surrogacy in India - Surrogate mothers in India

Seeking surrogacy is by no means an easy decision both emotionally and financially, no matter how compelling the reason to seek it may be. Surrogacy is a method of assisted reproduction. The term surrogacy is used when a woman carries a pregnancy and gives birth to a baby for another woman or person.Couples who undergo fertility treatments can relate to their struggles — the steep financial costs when science must aid nature, the years spent considering the many options from international adoption, fostering children with the hope of adoption before finally deciding on surrogacy.Journey gets further complicated when the parents are two gay men.At each step, new roadblocks — legal, emotional and societal — appears.

10 Suggestions to find good Fertility Clinic India
Infertile couples face an overwhelming situation when they begin the process of creating or adding to their family. It is at this time that they start looking out for fertility specialists or fertility clinics that will help them to achieve parenthood in the difficult journey of infertility.

Fertility clinics are staffed medical clinics that assist couples, and sometimes individuals, who want to become parents but for medical reasons have been unable to achieve this goal via the natural course. Clinics apply a number of diagnosis tests and sometimes very advanced medical treatments to obtain the desired conceptions and pregnancies.

Fertility clinics are staffed with highly trained personnel including Reproductive Endocrinologists, Embryologists, Sonographers, and Nurses. Additional specialists from Acupuncture, Hypnotherapy, and Nutrition may also be part of the team.

Fertility Clinics look to both males and females for diagnosis of fertility problems. Treatment may include ovulation induction, surgical interventions, intrauterine insemination, in vitro fertilization, the use of an egg donor or a sperm donor or surrogacy treatments and the availability of surrogate mother.In vitro fertilisation is the most well known of the assisted reproductive technology procedures performed at a fertility clinic.

When a couple is trying to conceive without using any contraceptives for more than a year without success, it may be time to make an appointment with a fertility specialist for an evaluation. The first question that comes to mind is how to select a doctor or a fertility clinic? Normally a couple takes the help of friends, relatives, other infertile couple who has taken treatment previously, Internet, Yellow Pages and more simple way is to find out on their own by doing some exercise like finding out the doctor’s qualification, training, skills and most important his/her experience in field of fertility treatment.

One must also see the timing of the institute, their professionalism, appointment on time, their progress, management, last but not the least their fees structure. Once you decide about the doctor, a proper counseling, investigation has to be done to check the cause of infertility. Knowing the exact cause can set you on the right path of treatment.

Advanced reproductive technology (such as IVF treatment) can be expensive, can involve strong drugs or hormones and can be an emotional roller coaster. When it comes to choosing a clinic, do thorough research ahead of time. Also, ask a lot of questions of every fertility clinic you're considering.

Following are few suggestions or guidelines one must take into account while selecting fertility specialist or fertility clinic.
1.

How long has the medical director been there working with the clinic? How long have the doctors and technicians been there? High staff turnover can be a big red flag for many reasons. It can mean bad management from a practice perspective, which can contribute to mistakes that can make or break your cycle. Carefully gather all the details about the concerned doctor. Know about educational background and his or her experience in the field. Personal meeting with the fertility expert will help you judge a doctor's personality and establish an equation of trust and comfort which is essential in the personal & intimidating process that one has to undergo at the clinic.

2.

Success rate: success rate of fertility center is a major part to consider that centre for treatment.

3.

Institute where couple wants to take treatment should be easy to locate and how easily it will fit into your life. The clinic near to your residence will save time and cost in travelling.

4.

Use of advanced technologies and latest research discoveries can work wonders for certain case files. Be sure the clinic has a wide range of infertility remedies available and is familiar with the latest technology. Know whether the fertility clinic has its own IVF laboratory and other facilities like blood, urine tests and ultrasound scans.

5.

Is there any age limits for treatment? If so, it's a sign that the clinic is concerned about ethical issues. Ideally, each clinic should treat its patients on a case-by-case basis instead of approaching patients on the general termed basis.

6.

Discuss with clinic about the cost of treatment. Do they offer money-back guarantee? Are they part of shared risk program? If you don't get pregnant - the doctor may have a financial incentive to treat you more aggressively than you want. It’s important that you know the costs ahead of time so that there are no surprises along the way. Ask for a printed cost sheet that details every single procedure outlined, from donor egg retrieval through the transfer of embryos into the patient’s uterus. Don’t forget to ask about ultrasound costs, lab costs, extra office visits, and the cost of after-hours calls if needed. Beware of clinics that offer a money-back guarantee if you don't get pregnant - the doctor may have a financial incentive to treat you more aggressively than you want.

7.

Know how does clinic communicates with their patients. Is it primarily by telephone or e-mail? Will patients have access to doctor’s e-mail address or mobile no.? In case of emergency does clinic provide 24X7 emergency services? Know whether clinic offers online consultation to the national and international patients. Can treatment procedures be done on weekends? Is the clinic open every day including weekends and bank holidays?

8.

If you call the clinic and they say they're too busy to answer your questions, try elsewhere. They may not have time for your questions once you're a registered patient, either.

9.

The important point to remember is to inquire whether fertility centre has the facility of providing egg donor and whether they have the sperm bank. It is important to ask whether a clinic has any freezing and storage facilities so that any spare embryos collected can be used in any possible further treatments that may be needed in the future. Find out how many embryos will be transferred at a time into the uterus. Transfer of more than two or three embryos will increase the risk of multiple births.

10.

Inquire with the clinic about other resources they may provide, including counseling or support groups, acupuncture, and other non-medical support.

Keep in mind that clinic which has higher IVF cost and success rate is the only one catering quality treatment; instead clinic which is well organized and has expert doctors and medical facilities is the better one. You should also consider the feeling and experience you have with the clinic. The physician should be kind, caring and compassionate and must be willing to be part in your journey. So, IVF clinics must be the ones, which, not only assures you of efficiency but it does gets shown in the action as well.
