What is surrogacy? 8 Bollywood actors have become parents through this process:
There have been many Bollywood actors in the past who had children through surrogacy, now the question arises as to what this process is?
What is surrogacy?
In this process, the sperm and egg of the parents are obtained and the embryo is made in the laboratory, then it is injected into the uterus of another woman (who is ready to give birth to this couple’s child).
Then at 9 months, the mother raises the couple’s baby in her womb, that is, genetically the baby belongs to the couple, but the uterus is used by someone else, women who are older or have hormonal problems. Doctors recommend surrogacy.
