Last reviewed: August 2026.<\/strong> Becoming a gestational surrogate is a significant medical, emotional and legal commitment. Eligibility is determined by the fertility clinic and program after individualized screening, so an online checklist cannot confirm that someone is medically appropriate to carry a pregnancy for intended parents.<\/p>

1. Review your pregnancy and health history<\/h2>

Gestational-carrier programs generally look for candidates with a history that demonstrates the ability to carry a pregnancy safely. Medical teams review prior pregnancies and deliveries, current health, medications and other risk factors. ASRM recommends that a gestational carrier ideally have had at least one term, uncomplicated pregnancy. Final medical clearance belongs to the treating fertility clinic.<\/p>

2. Understand the screening process<\/h2>

Screening can include review of obstetric records, physical and laboratory testing, infectious-disease testing and psychological evaluation. The purpose is not to prove that a future pregnancy will be risk-free; it is to identify relevant risks and help the candidate make an informed decision.<\/p>

3. Build a reliable support system<\/h2>

Consider who can help with transportation, appointments, medication schedules, childcare and recovery. Programs differ in their support-person requirements, so ask the agency and clinic what they expect rather than assuming one universal rule.<\/p>

4. Choose professionals who protect your independence<\/h2>

Ask how the agency coordinates care, handles compensation and expenses, responds to emergencies and supports surrogates after delivery. You should have independent legal counsel. Medical decisions about your body remain yours; intended-parent preferences or contract language do not replace your informed medical consent.<\/p>

5. Understand IVF, pregnancy and postpartum recovery<\/h2>

Gestational surrogacy requires embryo transfer and may involve medications to prepare the uterine lining. Pregnancy and delivery carry real risks, including complications that can occur in any pregnancy. Ask the fertility clinic about the proposed protocol, side effects, embryo-transfer plan and what happens if a transfer is unsuccessful.<\/p>

Planning should also include postpartum medical care, emotional support, time away from work and practical help at home. Recovery differs from person to person and may be longer after complications or C-section.<\/p>

Questions to ask before applying<\/h2>
  • Who makes the final medical eligibility decision?<\/li>
  • Will I have my own attorney?<\/li>
  • How are compensation and reimbursements funded and administered?<\/li>
  • What insurance will cover the pregnancy and possible complications?<\/li>
  • What psychological support is available before, during and after the journey?<\/li>
  • What is the clinic’s embryo-transfer policy?<\/li>
  • What happens if I need bed rest, lose income or experience a complication?<\/li>
  • What postpartum support is included?<\/li><\/ul>

    Bottom line<\/h2>

    A strong surrogacy journey starts with informed consent, individualized medical clearance, independent legal advice and realistic planning. Take time to understand both the benefits and the risks before signing an agreement or beginning treatment.<\/p>
