Surrogacy agencies are responsible for finding women who meet the legal and psychological requirements to begin the surrogacy process, but there is an even more important second step, which is that these women pass a series of medical tests.
Clinic Victoria carries out the most rigorous medical tests to ensure that the surrogate mother will be able to undergo an embryo transfer and a pregnancy process without risk to her health or that of the foetus.
The tests include urine tests, serology (hepatitis, HIV, etc.), cytology, glucose level, chest x-ray, blood group, etc.
Later on, the surrogate must follow a strict pregnancy control and take the medication prescribed by the clinic.
