Surrogacy Application

Becoming a gestational surrogate is an incredible, generous, and life-affirming experience to go through. Most surrogates feel a noble calling to help others for whom fertility was not in the cards. Of course, the pay of a surrogate is also substantial and can be a major factor in your choice. We are here to support you in your decision every step of the way.

Contact us with any questions

Your path starts by filling out our surrogacy application and meeting with our team. We will make sure that you meet the surrogate criteria recommended by the American Society of Reproductive Medicine (ASRM). These requirements are:

  • A healthy BMI of 30 or less
  • No smoking or illicit drug use
  • Have had at least one previous successful pregnancy
  • Be currently raising your child(ren) in your home
  • Have no history of postpartum depression
  • Be able to travel as needed for appointments

If you meet the criteria and your initial application is approved, you will then receive a more in-depth questionnaire to fill out. This helps intended parents get to know you!

Surrogacy Screening

Gestational Surrogacy is a true act of service and generosity. It is an opportunity for a woman to positively impact a couple’s destiny. It takes a special woman to become a Gestational Surrogate. Your surrogate screening will include medical and psychological screenings, an in-home assessment, and a background check.

Simple Steps Fertility is here for gestational surrogates and intended parents every step of the way. Our goal is to be a friend and trusted partner both before and during your pregnancy. We also provide a wellness program for all of our surrogates. Through this program, you can get to know your peers and discuss your experiences with industry professionals.
