Points to consider before opting for surrogacy ========== The article discusses the points to consider before opting for surrogacy as a means of parenthood. The criteria for intended parents include being in an age bracket of 26-55 for males and 23-50 for females, being a married couple, and not having any children. The surrogate must be between the ages of 25-35 and have at least one child. It is important to explore all avenues for conception before considering surrogacy, consult with fertility experts, and consider the financial implications. Medical factors, emotional preparedness, and legal considerations are also important to take into account. In India, only altruistic surrogacy is permitted, where the surrogate voluntarily offers to help without compensation. Commercial surrogacy is banned in India, so couples who do not meet the criteria may need to consider surrogacy abroad. #Surrogacy #Parenthood #IntendedParents #Criteria #MedicalEvaluation #FinancialAspects #EmotionalPreparedness #LegalConsiderations #AltruisticSurrogacy #CommercialSurrogacy https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/life-style/parenting/web-stories/points-to-consider-before-opting-for-surrogacy/photostory/109439630.cms
