Becoming a surrogate is a big responsibility — after all, you’re committing to carrying someone else’s unborn child to term. That said, not everyone can become a surrogate. There is a list of surrogate requirements that potential candidates must have in order to apply for surrogacy, as this helps to ensure that the surrogacy is a success for both the surrogate and the intended parents. If you are wondering how to become a surrogate, start by evaluating your physical and mental health according to these requirements:
