Who becomes a Surrogate and why?
Your surrogacy journey is made possible through a surrogate or gestational carrier. She is the woman who helps you fulfill your dream of parenthood.
She has opted to be a surrogate for various reasons. Women who become gestational carriers usually make this decision after long consideration and support from those around them.
Surrogacy – Responsibilities
Choosing to be a surrogate for someone unable to carry a child is incredibly generous. Due to the significant responsibilities for everyone involved, we operate only in countries with regulated surrogacy to ensure protection for all parties.
- Typically, a woman considering surrogacy needs to have previously given birth to at least one child without complications.
- It is important that she has stable living conditions and is not financially reliant on the surrogacy arrangement.
- She should be in good health, emotionally stable, and have the support of people around her throughout the process.
Becoming a Surrogate
At Nordic Surrogacy, we work with clinics in countries where surrogacy is legally regulated, ensuring protection for all involved. Surrogacy is not allowed in most European countries. Our partners, the clinic or local agency, are responsible for the surrogate. Nordic Surrogacy cannot assist individuals who wish to become surrogates.

Screening and Tests of Surrogates
The surrogate’s health during pregnancy is always of the highest concern. Besides undergoing extensive initial medical and psychological evaluations, she regularly attends medical check-ups for both her well-being and that of the baby throughout the pregnancy. Additionally, she has access to emotional support both during and following the process.
Surrogacy – Ethical and Moral Considerations
We think that the conversation regarding a woman’s motivation for becoming a surrogate is both relevant and necessary. It is important that the ethical considerations of this matter are addressed within a contemporary society.
Therefore, it is crucial that intended parents’ discussions and decisions are informed by accurate and pertinent information.
Altruistic Surrogacy
In so-called altruistic surrogacy, no compensation is given for carrying a child for someone else. Often, it is a relative or family member of the intended parent who is the surrogate.
Currently, Nordic Surrogacy cannot participate in processes where a relative or friend is the surrogate. We only operate in countries with clear surrogacy laws and parenthood regulations.
