How It Works: Surrogacy
We believe in a transparent, step-by-step process that puts your mind at ease. Here’s an overview of how we support you throughout the surrogacy journey

During this appointment you will work with your physician to develop an embryo creation plan. While the variety of options can seem overwhelming, don’t worry - you’ll work in partnership with your care team to determine which option works best for your family.
Prior to any embryo transfer into a gestational carrier, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requires extensive screening for both the sperm and egg source, involving a questionnaire, physical exam, and blood tests.
The embryo creation process looks different for each family. If you are using your own gametes (eggs & sperm), you will undergo In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) to create embryos. Once your embryos are created they will undergo preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) to identify the best embryo for transfer to your Gestational Carrier.
If an agency has not already been secured, we will refer you and assist in the process to start the search for a surrogate. Our patient care coordinator will work collaboratively with you and the agency to expedite the process, and ensure that you have chosen a surrogate that is right for you. Once the surrogate is identified, she will complete her psychological and medical screening.
The selected embryo will be thawed by an embryologist. The embryo transfer will be performed at Power Fertility Center by one of our physicians and your Gestational Carrier will be able to return home the same day with no required anesthesia.
Your Gestational Carrier will receive a blood test at 9 days post embryo transfer to determine if the transfer was successful. If positive, she will repeat the test 2 days after the first to confirm pregnancy. At 7 weeks, she will have an OB ultrasound, and at 9 weeks she will have a repeat ultrasound. At this time you will graduate from Power Fertility Center. Congratulations!
Our Advantage：Focusing on You
We match Intended Parents with Gestational Surrogates using our two-step matching protocol. Whenever possible, the first step is an in-person consultation with the Intended Parents. The Costa Health interviews the Intended Parents and matches them with an appropriate Surrogate based on five criteria:
Expectations
We consider the type of relationship that the Intended Parents and the Surrogate are looking for.
Geography
Locale can play an important role in facilitating good relationships between Surrogates and Intended Parents.
Special Requests
We believe that each match is unique, and we’re happy to facilitate special requests if all parties are in accord.
Timing
It’s crucial that the Surrogate and Intended Parents have the same expectations about timing.
Personality
Since surrogacy is a long process, it’s important that the Intended Parents and the Surrogate are compatible.
