Who is involved? … The Intended Parents
The intended parents also have specific needs. But for some reason they have not yet managed to fulfill their dream.
It could be due to a fertility problem of both or one of the parents. It could be that the intended parents are actually single men or gay couples and have thus not been able to become parents yet. Or single women who would like to go to the US because of the big number of advantages of surrogacy in the state of California.
In some countries for instance, you cannot choose either the egg or sperm doner. In the US, however, you have access to medical, personal and educational information about the potential doner. You even get to see childhood photos at least of both sperm and egg doners.
In many countries it’s basically the responsibility of the IFV doctor and laboratory. This means that the Intended Parent has no say in the genetic make-up of his/her future child.
It’s a bit contradictory don’t you think? Would you like a lab assistant who you will most probably never see again to be responsible for choosing your future child’s genetic make-up?
