5. Begin the fertilization and embryo transfer process
Once the contracts have been signed, it is time to begin the process of ovarian stimulation of the female partner to prepare for an ovum pickup. In the event that donor oocytes are needed, registered ART Banks are approached for egg Donors. The entire cycle is synchronized such that the donor ovum pickup is matched with the endometrium preparation of the surrogate mother. This process should be carefully and meticulously synchronized by the Surrogacy Clinic so that the embryos are safely transferred in a surrogate.
