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:
Surrogates must be between the ages of 21 and 39
Only healthy females with regular menstrual cycles can apply to become a surrogate
Surrogates must have had at least one successful, live birth with no major complications during pregnancy and delivery
They also cannot have had more than one C-section
Surrogates must have a BMI below 32
To calculate your BMI please go to this BMI CALCULATOR
Surrogates must be non-smokers and non-drug users
Drug tests will be performed
Surrogates cannot be currently taking medications for a mental illness (i.e. anxiety, depression, etc.)
They also cannot have a history of anxiety, bipolar disorder, or any other mental illness
Psychological screening will be performed
Surrogates must be financially stable, responsible individuals with exceptional communication skills
Surrogates must be U.S. citizens, Canadian citizens, or have valid U.S. Permanent Residency status
Please note: The surrogacy matching process will be delayed if you are currently breastfeeding, or if you are currently on IUD or birth control shots. However, your application for surrogacy may still be submitted. Feel free to contact us at any time with specific questions about any of the the surrogate qualifications listed above.
