Our Surrogacy Program
At the Fertility Institute of San Diego, we understand that the journey to parenthood is unique for each individual and couple. Our Surrogacy Program, led by our esteemed Medical Director, Dr. Minoos Hosseinzadeh, is designed to provide a comprehensive and compassionate path for those who choose surrogacy as their route to building a family.
Understanding Surrogacy
Gestational surrogacy is a remarkable journey and a profound gift. In this practice, a surrogate mother carries and delivers a baby for another individual or couple, known as the intended parents. Unlike traditional surrogacy, gestational surrogacy exclusively involves the surrogate carrying a baby created using either the intended mother’s egg or a donor egg and the intended father’s sperm or donor sperm. This method ensures that the surrogate is not biologically related to the child she carries, emphasizing the altruistic nature of the arrangement and highlighting the immense generosity of the surrogate.
Our Approach to Surrogacy
At the Fertility Institute of San Diego, we prioritize the health and well-being of all parties involved in the surrogacy process. Our Surrogacy Program is built on the pillars of ethical practice, transparency, and personalized care. Dr. Hosseinzadeh and our team of fertility specialists work closely with intended parents, surrogates, and egg donors to ensure a seamless and supportive journey.
The Surrogacy Process
The journey begins with a comprehensive consultation with Dr. Hosseinzadeh. This is an opportunity for intended parents to discuss their desires, concerns, and any medical considerations. It’s also a time to explore the various aspects of surrogacy and understand the legal and psychological implications.
We assist in finding a compatible surrogate who meets the medical, psychological, and legal criteria. Our team ensures that the surrogate is fully informed, prepared, and supported throughout the process.
Both the intended parents and the surrogate undergo thorough medical and psychological evaluations to ensure they are ready for the surrogacy journey.
Clear and comprehensive legal contracts are drafted and reviewed to protect the rights and responsibilities of all parties involved.
The intended mother or egg donor undergoes an IVF cycle to retrieve eggs, which are then fertilized with the intended father’s or donor’s sperm. The resulting embryos are transferred to the surrogate’s uterus.
Throughout the pregnancy, the surrogate receives ongoing medical care and support. The intended parents are involved in the pregnancy journey and prepare for the arrival of their baby.
After the birth of the baby, our team continues to provide support to the surrogate and the new parents, ensuring a smooth transition for everyone involved.
