Best Answer

If a woman can not give birth naturally for whatever reason, a surrogate mother can be used. The couple can offer their genetic material to be carried in another woman, with that woman carrying the child.

Surrogate motherhood involves a woman carrying a pregnancy and giving birth to a child for another person or couple. There are two main types: traditional surrogacy (where the surrogate's egg is used) and gestational surrogacy (where the surrogate carries a child conceived using the intended parent's egg or a donor egg). Legal agreements are typically put in place to outline rights and responsibilities of all parties involved.

If a woman had her tubes tied could she still be a surrogate mother for another couple?

Yes, she could. Surrogate motherhood involves the in vitro fertilization of another woman's ovum with a man's sperm, then implantation of that fertilized egg (usually at the blastocyte stage) into another woman's uterus. A tubal ligation would not prevent this process from being successful.
