Gestational Surrogacy

Overview

At Pacific NW Fertility’s Gestational Carrier Program, our physicians combine their years of clinical science with the most recent, state-of-the-art technologies in the laboratory and the expertise of our talented embryologists and make dreams come true.

PNWF Approach

Gestational Carriers, sometimes called surrogates, help patients build their families. These carriers go through a full screening process before they are matched with the intended parents. Subsequently, a genetically unrelated embryo is transferred into the carrier’s uterus.

With many people involved in each case, these cycles can be complicated, but we have team members that are exclusively focused on carrier cycles and bring their own expertise to each coordination.

Process & Options

Some patients use their own eggs and sperm to create the embryos. In other cases, patients use donated eggs from our Donor Egg Program and/or donor sperm from one of the many reputable sperm banks across the country. PNWF also works with single men and gay male couples, utilizing gestational carriers to start or grow their families.

Carriers are either found via a recommended surrogacy agency or are considered compassionate carriers—a friend or family member of the intended parents.
