The young women who choose to take part in this system, stay at the Akanksha Infertility Clinic, located in the small town of Anand, in Gujarat State. The ladies are monitored through the pregnancy.


There are about 50 women available to have babies as surrogates. The women are implanted with clients’ emborios.

The doctors at the clinic deliver about 3 babies every month. The price for the entire procedure cost about $30,000 - which is much cheaper than in the United States.

About $8,000 is given to the surrogate mother. This is about 10 years of wages at a regular job in India.
