Surrogacy Regulation in India
Many people have heard about the increasing number of Intended Parents flying to India for surrogacy because it is cheaper and there are no regulations regarding it. However, it looks as though the Indian government has caught on to this trend and is looking to start regulating it. Of course, this is not necessarily a bad thing; after all, regulations can do a lot of good.
The regulations that many Indian governmental officials are proposing are for the protection of the Indian surrogates (including minimum age limit and health conditions) and the children borne of this process, which could also lead to the protection of prospective Intended Parents to ensure that they do not get bamboozled when going to India for Assisted Reproduction.
In my opinion these regulations are a good thing because even though many of the regulations, say in California, can be very strict, they are usually put in place to protect the health of the surrogate, the child, and even the psychological health of the Intended Parents and the surrogate.
