Surrogacy program at IVMED
A surrogacy program is an in vitro fertilization program in which an embryo is transferred to a surrogate mother who has no genetic relationship with the embryo.
Surrogacy programs in Ukraine are available thanks to legislation that protects the rights of patients and guarantees the establishment of parental rights to a child born to a surrogate mother.

Frequently asked questions and answers about surrogacy
What is the difference between a surrogate mother's pregnancy and a regular pregnancy?
The only difference is that the conception of a child occurs after an artificial insemination procedure (IVF, in vitro conception) and the surrogate mother is transferred into the uterine cavity.
How long does it take to examine antlers in your clinic?
On the first day of arrival at the clinic, the doctor looks at the ultrasound, if everything is fine, on the same day the surrogate mother undergoes all the necessary tests to participate in the program. The results of the tests are usually ready in 7 days and are reported to the surrogate mother by her coordinator. The time spent in our clinic is 1-1.5 hours.
