In recent years, some people have started turning to social media or online classified to seek out a surrogate. However, while this may seem like a good idea in theory, it can actually make things complicated. For example, intended parents who seek out surrogates independently are more likely to be susceptible to fraud, misrepresentation, or scams. It can also be difficult to find a surrogate who is likely to be medically cleared for the process.
When working with a surrogacy agency, you have the benefit of being matched with surrogate candidates that have a high chance of being physically, emotionally, and mentally healthy enough for the surrogacy journey.
