Episode Synopsis
If you’re considering becoming a surrogate, understanding the potential risks and complications is crucial.
What questions do you need to ask the fertility clinic or your agency about your risks?
Listen as Alex shares her eye-opening journey through surrogacy, including life-threatening complications.
But at the end of the day, she still champions surrogacy and wholeheartedly recommends it to others.

Alex's severe hemorrhage experience and emergency surgery.
Why it’s essential to ask the hard questions before committing to surrogacy.
What no one told Alex about medical emergencies in surrogacy—and what you need to know.
