Yes, many women can become a surrogate in Texas if they meet the agency’s health, pregnancy, and lifestyle requirements. Texas is generally considered surrogacy-friendly, but the legal process still needs to follow state rules.
Texas law includes a framework for gestational agreements under Family Code Chapter 160. Those agreements must meet state requirements as part of the legal process.
No. Physician’s Surrogacy offers both a traditional path and a Medically Cleared option. Some women want to complete more screening upfront. Others prefer the standard timeline.
The traditional program follows a more standard sequence, with screening and matching steps happening over time. The Medically Cleared program moves key medical steps earlier, which can help some women move faster after match.
That depends on your qualifications, the program you choose, your match timing, and clinic scheduling. Some women move through the process faster with upfront screening, while others prefer a more traditional pace.
Some travel may be part of the journey, especially for clinic-related appointments, but the exact amount depends on the fertility clinic, your match, and your program path.
Yes. Compensation does not depend on choosing the Medically Cleared option. If you qualify and match, your compensation package is based on the agreement for your journey.
Surrogacy laws are not identical in every state. For women exploring surrogacy in Texas, it helps to work with a team that understands the local legal framework and can coordinate the right medical and legal steps. Texas law specifically addresses gestational agreements as part of its parentage framework.

A physician stepped in and did a peer-to-peer with her managing OB and they both decided on the proper protocol in order to ensure a safe journey and delivery. Our surrogate was put on bed rest and she had our full support along with her surrogate support manager, case manager and the entire Physician’s Surrogacy team! Without our agency being Ob-Managed, I don’t know what our outcome would have been! I am so happy our surrogate was healthy and safe and so was our baby boy!
My surrogate was medically cleared and completely healthy when we started our journey, but during a routine check-up, her OB noticed she had an elevated AFP level during the second trimester. Naturally, we all got really scared andimagined the worst-case scenario. Luckily, a physician from Physician’s Surrogacy was able to coordinate a meeting with a Perinatologist, GYN Oncologist and the OB to devise a plan to ensure that both the surrogate and baby were safe. I am happy to say our surrogate’s amino fluid tested normal and we have a healthy baby!
Our surrogate was originally going to visit her previous OB who had delivered her children. However, due to the distance from where she lived to the hospital, she needed to see a doctor at a closer location. Through their vast network, Physician’s Surrogacy was able to find a practicing OB closer to the hospital and ensured that they had the capacity to handle a high-risk case. They also made sure that the hospital had the proper level NICU. It was all worked out so quickly and our surrogate was able to be seen by the new OB the same week!
