    Surrogacy in Uganda: Costs, Risks and Ethical Considerations

    Fri, 29 May 2026 5:00 pm

    Starting a family isn’t always straightforward. For many, the path to parenthood involves decisions they never expected to face, including whether to use an egg donor.

    This recent webinar brings together expert guidance and deeply personal stories to help you better understand what donor conception really looks like in practice.

    What this webinar covers

    In this session, we explore both the practical and emotional sides of using donor eggs, including:

    • When and why people consider donor options
    • The realities of finding a donor locally versus internationally
    • Success rates, timelines, and what impacts outcomes
    • What the process actually looks like, from selection to embryo transfer
    • The role of clinics, egg banks, and genetic screening

      Real Experiences from Intended Parents

      One of the most powerful parts of this webinar is hearing directly from women who have gone through the journey.

      They speak candidly about:

      • The emotional shift from IVF with own eggs to donor conception
      • The grief that can come with letting go of a genetic connection
      • Common fears, including bonding, attachment, and “what if” questions
      • What actually happens once pregnancy begins and after birth

      Many describe a turning point, where uncertainty gives way to clarity and connection, offering reassurance to those currently facing similar decisions.
