The question of whether a surrogate mother is biologically related to the child is key for all future parents. The child is genetically related exclusively to his biological parents or 50% to donors, and the surrogate mother provides only temporary physiological support.

In 2026, the optimal age threshold for surrogacy is from 21 to 39 years (inclusive), while the upper age threshold for surrogacy is 40 years in leading clinics.

In 2026, in vitro fertilization (IVF) provides the basic standard for the most accurate assessment of embryo quality and potential – preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD), which includes PGT-M (detection of monogenic diseases) and PGT-A (aneuploidy screening).

The reason for surrogacy is primarily rooted in the natural desire of people to be parents, even if their nature does not allow them to realize their desire on their own.

The decision to involve a surrogate mother in the reproductive program requires being well-informed and conducting a balanced analysis of multiple factors.

When planning future motherhood, women resort to various strategies. Pregnancies are planned taking into account the most fertile age for women, oocytes are frozen at the age at which women are most fertile, women initially consider motherhood at a late reproductive age using the services of a surrogate mother.

The preservation of genetic material not only for procreation, but also for the fight against disease and aging is the goal of advanced cryotechnology. Solution of fertility issues, treatment of various types of oncology, medical research are already being successfully carried out with the help of cryobanks.
