Surrogacy is gaining even more popularity in the world, and its most common type is gestational surrogacy. In general, there are two types, gestational and traditional surrogacy. With the traditional option, the egg of the surrogate mother is used and she has a genetic connection with the child, this can cause certain legal and ethical complications. And with gestational surrogacy, an embryo created from the egg and sperm of the intended parents or donors is transferred to the uterus of the surrogate mother with the help of in vitro fertilization (IVF) in laboratory conditions. So the surrogate mother has no biological connection to the child, she only carries and gives birth to the child for the intended parents, who are legally the sole legal parents of the child.
