Gestational surrogacy

Gestational surrogacy is a form of IVF in which an embryo created from the intended parents' (or donors') eggs and sperm is transferred to a gestational carrier — a woman who carries the pregnancy but has no genetic connection to the child. Surrogacy is an option for individuals who are unable to carry a pregnancy themselves. Chelsea Fertility NYC provides surrogacy coordination and consultation for intended parents in New York and beyond.

Surrogacy is used by gay male couples, women who cannot safely carry a pregnancy due to uterine conditions or other medical reasons, women who have experienced recurrent pregnancy loss, and individuals who have had a hysterectomy. New York State fully supports gestational surrogacy — the Child-Parent Security Act legalized it in 2021, making New York one of the most surrogacy-friendly states in the U.S.

Chelsea Fertility NYC works with a network of trusted surrogacy agencies, reproductive attorneys, and sperm banks to help intended parents find and work with a gestational carrier. We guide you through every medical step of the process, from embryo creation to carrier preparation and embryo transfer. Visit our surrogacy page to learn more about how the process works.
