Research and Education
Understand the Process: Educate yourself on egg donation and surrogacy, including legal, medical, and ethical considerations. At ACRC-Global, we offer detailed consultations, providing a recap via email and answering any questions throughout your journey.
Attend Seminars/Webinars: Participating in educational events, such as webinars, and subscribing to newsletters can provide valuable insights and connections with experts. While optional, these events can help you feel more prepared.
Consult with Surrogacy and Egg Donation Agencies
Agency Guidance: Consult reputable agencies for a clear overview of the surrogacy and egg donation process. ACRC-Global handles all aspects to ensure full support.
Legal Support: Some agencies, like ACRC-Global, offer legal services or partner with reproductive law attorneys. Our programs include legal fees, insurance, donor compensation, and more. We also offer referrals to specialized attorneys for complimentary consultations.
Insurance Packages: Many agencies include insurance, covering health, life, and organ loss for the surrogate, providing peace of mind for both parties.
IVF Clinic Referrals: ACRC-Global partners with IVF clinics and can recommend clinics that fit your needs, though if you have a preferred clinic, we accommodate that as well.
Financial Considerations
Budget: Be aware of the costs involved, including medical, legal, and compensation for both the surrogate and egg donor.
Agency Fees: Understand what’s included in your agency package and account for any additional expenses.
Criteria for Donor and Surrogate
Selection Criteria: Choose your egg donor and surrogate based on health, background, and personal preferences. ACRC-Global can guide you through this important decision.
Relationship Expectations: While IPs usually don’t form relationships with donors, we encourage open communication between intended parents (IPs) and gestational surrogates (GS). ACRC-Global facilitates online, phone, or in-person meetings based on your preferences.
Understand the Timeline
Process Duration: Familiarize yourself with the process timeline, from matching to medical treatments. ACRC-Global helps manage expectations and navigate delays or changes smoothly.
Support System
Family and Friends: While many intended parents prefer privacy, some find emotional support from close family and friends helpful during this journey.
Support Groups: At ACRC-Global, we respect the confidentiality of IPs and provide one-on-one support tailored to your needs.
Work with a Trustworthy Agency
Trust and Transparency: Choosing the right agency is key to a successful journey. At ACRC-Global, we prioritize transparency and support from consultation to birth, ensuring a seamless experience.
