The Cost of Surrogacy in Nevada

Intended parents who pursue surrogacy in Nevada tend to have three large categories of expenses: surrogate compensation, medical costs, and agency fees. These costs can be further broken down as:

• Surrogate Compensation
• Medical & Mental Health Screenings
• IVF & Embryo Transfer
• Surrogate Medical Insurance
• Surrogate Medical Care (including prenatal, delivery, and postpartum)
• Travel & Miscellaneous Expenses
• Legal Fees
• Agency Fees

The exact cost of surrogacy varies based on location, specific needs, surrogate experience, and other details. For instance, surrogates often receive additional compensation if they carry twins or if they need to have a C-section during delivery.

Your surrogacy agency should provide a clear estimate of costs for your specific surrogacy journey. This should include both the agency’s fees and a typical breakdown of overall expenses and costs. Eggceptional Fertility has a mission to provide clear and transparent information on fees and expenses. For a more detailed look at our current surrogacy fees, click here.

How Do I Find a Surrogacy Agency Near Me?

Surrogacy is a major emotional, physical, and financial commitment. It’s important to work with an experienced, quality surrogacy agency to save time, money, energy, and ensure the smoothest possible journey. To find an excellent surrogacy agency, look for one with:

• Experience – the surrogacy journey is long and complex, with thousands of important details to ensure success and safety for everyone involved. While surrogacy experiences can share certain similarities, each journey is unique and unexpected situations can arise. A surrogacy agency with years of experience will help you navigate your path to parenthood with skill and confidence.
• Compassion – Intended parents pursuing surrogacy can feel a wide range of emotions – excitement, anxiety, joy, nervousness, and more. All these feelings are completely valid, and you deserve to work with an agency who will support you emotionally as well as logistically. Listen to your intuition when you meet with potential surrogacy agencies and stay away from anywhere that makes you feel like a number instead of a complete human being.
• Transparency – Surrogacy is complicated, but it shouldn’t be mysterious. As an intended parent, you deserve to be fully informed and aware of every aspect of the process. Of course, you won’t need to manage these details – that’s what your agency is for! Still, a great surrogacy agency will be open and honest about answering your questions, whether it’s about their matching process, the surrogate timeline, or their costs and fees.

Who Can Use a Surrogate?

Surrogacy allows people who cannot carry or deliver a baby on their own to become parents, often while still sharing a biological connection with their child. In surrogacy, a gestational carrier (or “surrogate”) receives an embryo developed from the intended parents and/or an egg or sperm donor. The surrogate then carries the pregnancy and delivers the baby. The surrogate doesn’t have any parental rights to the baby. In fact, surrogates generously offer to bring someone else’s baby into the world simply because they want to help people become parents. In return for the surrogate’s time and effort, she receives compensation from the intended parent(s).

A Nevada couple or individual might choose to find a surrogate for any of several reasons, including:

• They have healthy eggs but can’t safely become pregnant.
• They had a prior hysterectomy.
• Neither parent can carry a pregnancy (for instance, gay male couples).

Some intended parents may also need to use donor eggs or sperm on their path to parenthood.

How to Get Started Finding a Surrogate in Nevada

The surrogacy process begins with finding an experienced surrogate agency and discussing your family-building goals with them. From there, your agency will guide you through the matching process of selecting a surrogate and creating a surrogacy agreement. Once the legal and financial arrangements are complete, your fertility clinic will start the IVF and embryo transfer process. Next comes pregnancy, delivery, and bringing home your new baby!

Of course, there are many more steps and details throughout the surrogacy process. Eggceptional Fertility will help you navigate the entire process with confidence and care.
