Why surrogacy is attaining importance

Humanity and society always tried to have their progeny and they always aspire to have stronger generation to follow them.  Family life is always important for a man.  When a couple cannot reproduce, they require somebody who can donate the egg and carry the child on behalf of the intended mother.  The mother who will deliver the child to the childless couple is known as surrogate mother.  Improvements in medical science and treatment that include higher level of technology to fulfill the desire and wish of childless parents has grown in an extraordinary level.  Where infertility treatment fails, surrogacy and the proxy mum will come into the picture. 

The term surrogacy and substitute mother have been coined by a famous scientific fiction author Robin cook in is popular novel “The Surrogate Mother”.  When he wrote this novel, the science is still in its infant stage, now, whatever he has narrated in his novel, everything has been attained in reality.  The infertility and childless trauma and the agony experienced by the parents is beyond explanation and couple often become disgusted.  Modern technology and modern science have given a ray of hope to those couples where they can get a child using a proxy mother. 

Having their own family, living with children is a dream of every couple.  When it is not possible they can decide to take the help of a surrogate mother if they are financially and emotionally stable.  But the process of having a child through surrogacy is not as easy as mentioned since the process is complicated and lengthy and it will take a minimum of one to one and half year time.  There are many legal issues involved in this process.
