Future parents choosing a country for a surrogacy program need to consider two important aspects: medical and legal.

The main advantage of surrogacy is the opportunity to become parents for those who, for various reasons, are unable to become pregnant naturally.

The best way to find a surrogate mother is to turn to a reliable source of search.

Participation in a surrogacy program requires a clear understanding of how the surrogacy process works, what problems a surrogate mother may encounter, what are the risks of surrogacy, and many other important details.

Despite the long history of gestational surrogacy (the first case dates back to 1985), there are still many myths surrounding the procedure that cast a shadow on the facts about surrogacy.

There are two main interested parties in a reproductive program involving a surrogate mother: the intended parents and the gestational carrier.

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.

Finding a surrogate mother is one of the most difficult stages of the entire reproductive program.

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

Surrogacy has been allowed in Portugal since 2016. The main aspect that complicates and delays the surrogacy process in Portugal is the regularity of the examination of applications by the National Council for Medical Assistance for Childbearing.
