The Foundation of Success: Rigorous Process Management

Many intended parents believe the hardest part of surrogacy is the IVF technology. At ANVINO, we believe success lies in the management of "People" and the protection of "Law".
We break the cycle down into three core pillars, each governed by strict SOPs (Standard Operating Procedures).

1. Surrogate Screening: The Top 10%

Not everyone can become a surrogate. We enforce a strict "108-Point Screening Standard," with an acceptance rate of less than 10%:

Obstetric History: Must have given birth to at least one healthy child of her own, with no history of gestational diabetes or preeclampsia.
Medical Screening: Includes infectious disease testing, drug screening, and the crucial Hysteroscopy to ensure a perfect uterine cavity free of polyps or adhesions.
Psychological Evaluation: A licensed psychologist assesses emotional stability and understanding of the surrogacy process to ensure a stress-free pregnancy.
Background Check: No criminal record, stable family life, and spousal consent (required by Georgian law).

2. Legal Process: Securing Parental Rights

In legal surrogacy jurisdictions like Georgia, the legal framework is established BEFORE the medical procedure:

Step 1: Notarization Before Transfer
Before the embryo transfer, you and the surrogate sign a "Surrogacy Agreement," notarized locally. This legally waives any parental rights the surrogate might claim.

Step 2: Birth Certificate
Upon birth, the civil registry issues a birth certificate based on the notarized agreement. Only YOUR names (Intended Parents) appear on it. The surrogate's name is completely omitted, ensuring your full legal parentage.

3. Medical Transfer: Precision Delivery

Once the legal and screening phases are complete, we proceed to the medical transfer:

Cycle Prep: The doctor uses Estrogen to build the surrogate's uterine lining (Endometrium).
Lining Conversion: When the lining reaches 8-10mm, Progesterone injections begin to simulate post-ovulation conditions and open the "Implantation Window."
Thaw & Transfer: On Day 5 of Progesterone (matching the blastocyst age), the PGT-A tested embryo is thawed and gently transferred into the uterus via a catheter.
Confirmation: A blood test for HCG is performed 10-14 days later. Rising levels confirm a successful pregnancy!

Surrogacy Process FAQ

Q: Can I use a friend as a surrogate?
A: Legally yes, but ANVINO advises against it. Emotional complexities can arise. Commercial surrogacy with a screened stranger ensures clear boundaries and professional compliance.

Q: Do I need to be present for the transfer?
A: No. You only need to be present for legal signing (remote options available) and to pick up your baby. The transfer is monitored by the ANVINO team, with updates sent to you via video.
