What Does Surrogacy Mean? A Complete Guide from Militta Agency

For many couples and individuals around the world, the path to parenthood can be filled with unexpected challenges. When natural conception is not possible, surrogacy can offer hope — and a real solution.

At Militta Agency, a leading surrogacy agency in Ukraine, we are proud to help intended parents achieve their dreams with care, compassion, and full legal support. In this article, we’ll explain the meaning of surrogacy, explore how it works, and answer the most frequently asked questions.

Surrogacy Meaning: The Basics

Surrogacy is a method of assisted reproduction where a woman — known as a surrogate mother — carries and gives birth to a child on behalf of another person or couple, known as the intended parents.

There are two main types of surrogacy:

• Gestational Surrogacy (most common today): The surrogate carries an embryo created from the egg and sperm of the intended parents or donors. In this case, the surrogate has no genetic link to the child.
• Traditional Surrogacy (less common and legally restricted in many countries): The surrogate’s own egg is used, making her the biological mother. This method raises more legal and emotional complexities.

At Militta, we exclusively offer gestational surrogacy, which is fully legal in Ukraine and protects the rights of the intended parents.

Why Do People Choose Surrogacy?

Surrogacy can be a suitable option for:

• Women who cannot carry a pregnancy due to medical conditions
• Couples with repeated IVF failures or miscarriages
• LGBTQ+ couples or single individuals who want to become parents
• Families affected by genetic disorders that prevent safe pregnancy

Whatever the reason, surrogacy provides a path to parenthood that was once out of reach for many.
