FAQ
Honest answers to real questions
If your question isn't here, ask us directly, on WhatsApp, by phone, or through the contact form. You'll get a straight answer.
For intended parents
How do we get started?
Book a free consultation, by video from anywhere, or in person in Accra. We'll discuss your situation, explain realistic options and costs, and outline next steps. There is no obligation and nothing to pay for the consultation.
Can international intended parents work with you?
Yes. Much of our programme runs remotely: consultations, matching, and updates happen by video and WhatsApp, and we guide your travel when visits to Accra are needed. We support families from Europe, North America, and across Africa.
How are surrogates and donors screened?
Every surrogate and donor completes medical and psychological screening at reputable partner clinics in Accra before they can be matched, along with background and lifestyle checks. Only a minority of applicants are accepted into the programme.
What does a programme cost?
It depends on the service, the medical plan, and your circumstances, so we quote after your consultation rather than publishing one-size-fits-all figures. What we promise: a written, itemised breakdown before you commit, and no hidden fees mid-journey.
How long does surrogacy take?
Most journeys take roughly 14 to 20 months from consultation to birth: matching and screening, treatment cycles, then the pregnancy itself. Your case manager keeps you updated at every stage.
For surrogates
Who can become a surrogate?
Healthy women aged 21–38 who have given birth to at least one child of their own, had pregnancies free of major complications, don't smoke, and have a supportive home environment. If you're unsure whether you qualify, apply anyway, our coordinator will advise you honestly.
Will I be the baby's biological mother?
No. We facilitate gestational surrogacy only: the embryo is created with the intended parents' or donors' eggs and sperm, so the baby is not genetically related to you.
Is surrogacy safe?
Surrogacy involves the normal medical considerations of IVF and pregnancy, which is why thorough screening comes first and all medical care is provided at reputable clinics at no cost to you. You'll also receive independent counselling before you commit, so your decision is fully informed.
How does compensation work?
Compensation is agreed clearly and in writing before the journey begins, and paid on an agreed schedule, not left to promises. All medical costs are covered separately; they never come out of your compensation.
For egg & sperm donors
Is donation anonymous?
Yes, profiles shared with intended parents are anonymised. Your identity is protected under our confidentiality practices and Ghana's Data Protection Act.
Does egg donation affect my own fertility?
Current medical evidence does not show that a properly managed donation cycle reduces your future fertility. The clinic team explains the process, its effects, and any risks in person before you consent, and you can withdraw at any point before donation.
How much time does it take?
Egg donation typically involves clinic visits over a 2–4 week cycle. Sperm donation involves shorter, scheduled appointments. We plan around your work and studies.
Trust & privacy
How is my personal information handled?
Everything you submit goes directly to our coordination team, is used only for the purpose you gave it, and is never sold or shared without your permission. We operate in line with Ghana's Data Protection Act, 2012 (Act 843). See our Privacy Policy for details.
Are you a clinic?
No, and that's deliberate. We are an independent consultancy that coordinates reputable partner clinics on your behalf. Medical procedures are performed by licensed medical professionals at those clinics; we manage the journey around them and advocate for you.
