Legal regulation of surrogate maternity

Abstract

Surrogacy is the only way to have a genetically own child for women without a uterus or serious diseases. In the process of this treatment method, the embryo, which has been received after the fertilization of the genetic mother’s oocyte by the genetic father’s spermatozoon, is transferred into the organism of a surrogate mother. For 9 months, the surrogate mother bears a child with whom she does not have any genetic relationship. The newborn is genetically and legally considered a child of the married couple whose embryo has been transferred to the surrogate mother’s uterus.
