Define the different types of surrogacy contracts

What will be an ideal response?


A gestational surrogacy is an arrangement used when the intended mother cannot conceive or carry the child for health-related reasons. As such, the child is conceived through in vitro fertilization. With an altruistic surrogacy, the surrogate mother receives no compensation for carrying the child or relinquishing her rights upon birth. The surrogate mother can be reimbursed for expenses incurred during the course of the pregnancy that were related to the pregnancy. The surrogate mother in a commercial surrogacy receives a fee for carrying the child to term.
