The Growing Demand for Ethical Surrogacy Practices
The surrogacy and reproductive medicine landscape is evolving, with increased demand for ethical and transparent processes. According to a report by the American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM), the number of gestational surrogacy cycles in the U.S. has steadily risen over the past decade, reflecting growing awareness and acceptance of third-party reproduction. Additionally, research published in the Journal of Assisted Reproduction and Genetics highlights the importance of thorough medical and psychological screening for surrogates to ensure safe and successful outcomes for all parties involved.
Swiderski’s approach aligns with these findings, as she emphasizes compliance with regulatory guidelines and prioritizing the well-being of surrogates, donors, and intended parents. She continues to advocate for advancements that enhance the surrogacy and egg donation experience while supporting best practices that promote ethical responsibility in the industry.
