Surrogacy

Surrogacy Most couples in the world get married with the intent of having children. A most devastating time in a couple’s life could be if they are incapable of producing children of their own. There are always other options to turn to, but if adoption or other painful procedures don’t appeal to a couple, another controversial option is surrogacy. “Surrogacy is where another woman carries a baby for an infertile couple” (surrogacy UK). There are two types of surrogacy: straight and host. Straight Surrogacy is when the surrogate uses her own egg fertilized with the intended husband's sperm. Host Surrogacy is where a surrogate would carry the infertile couples genetic child. This is carried out using the In Vitro Fertilization technique. Dr. Richard M. Levin discovered this procedure in 1979. Today’s society has both objected to and approved of this topic. If the parents and the surrogate mother agree to do the procedure, no one is being forced to do anything that he/she doesn’t want to do. The outcome of this procedure is something so wonderful and rewarding; how could there be anything wrong with it' “Surrogate motherhood, an infertile couple’s surrogacy, surrogate, should, procedure, people, own, one, infertile, available, woman, percent, mother, couples, couple, children, uk, true, think, surrogates, success, straight, relative, medical, host, having, great, feel, doesn’t, deal, couple’s, come, birth, anything, anyone, another
