Taux de réussite de la maternité de substitution

The age of the woman using or donating her egg is one of the most crucial factors determining the odds of a healthy pregnancy. In a surrogacy pregnancy, the result is that egg donors tend to be young, typically in their 20s, while a surrogate can be into her early 40s. Once a woman reaches 40, the quality of her eggs have declined … but not her ability to carry a successful pregnancy.

The quality of the sperm being used also plays a critical role in surrogacy’s success. Ideally, sperm should be used or donated from a healthy nonsmoker.

Intended parents using donor eggs and a surrogate with a proven uterus make a combination for success. This means you have young eggs transferred to a surrogate who has had healthy pregnancies and delivered healthy babies. Success can be further increased if the embryos have undergone Pregenetic testing (PGT), so that only those embryos that are congenitally normal are transferred. In these cases, implantation rates and live births will be high, while miscarriage failed transfers and rates will be low.

While the surrogate’s age is not as critical as the egg donor’s age, it’s still essential that surrogates meet a clinic’s rigorous medical criteria. A thorough agency, like Creative Family Connections, will do a rigorous pre-screening of all surrogate candidates to ensure they meet the specific IVF clinic guidelines and requirements before sending them for medical screening. Indeed, we will have your IVF clinic give medical pre-clearance to your surrogate candidate, after reviewing her OB and hospital records, as well as a form we send to her OB, before you ever meet her.

Intended parents can improve their chance of a successful surrogacy experience by working with well-established surrogacy experts like Creative Family Connections.
