6+ Best Clinics for Surrogacy in Turkey

World-Class Embryology Labs

Turkish fertility clinics host state-of-the-art laboratories equipped with the latest micro-manipulation technology, time-lapse embryo imaging (Embryoscope), and advanced pre-implantation genetic screening (PGT-A/PGT-M). This infrastructure directly translates to higher clinical pregnancy rates for complex infertility cases.

Globally Recognized Reproductive Endocrinologists

Fertility specialists in Turkey are highly accomplished, with many holding certifications and memberships in prestigious international organizations like the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology (ESHRE) and the American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM), ensuring global medical standards.

Substantial Cost Reductions

An IVF cycle or advanced reproductive treatment protocol in Turkey costs a fraction of the price charged in the US or UK. Even when factoring in accommodation and medication, patients can save upwards of 70% while receiving care at fully accredited, modern hospitals.

Strict Quality Regulation

The Turkish Ministry of Health tightly monitors and regulates fertility clinics, enforcing rigorous safety protocols, laboratory clean-room standards, and ethical medical practices. This robust oversight provides international patients with reassurance regarding safety and quality.

Istanbul

The Global Fertility Junction

Istanbul hosts the highest concentration of JCI-accredited fertility centers and world-class laboratory facilities in the region. It is the premier choice for complex genetic diagnosis, micro-TESE, and patients seeking the most experienced clinical specialists.

Ankara

Capital-Grade Research Centers

As Turkey’s capital, Ankara is renowned for its highly academic, university-affiliated reproductive health institutions. Ideal for patients requiring highly specialized interdisciplinary care, rare genetic workups, and deeply studied clinical approaches.

Antalya

Coastal Medical Sanctuary

Antalya perfectly blends cutting-edge fertility treatments with the relaxing, low-stress environment of a Mediterranean resort city. This stress-free setting is favored by patients who want to focus entirely on wellness during their cycle.

Izmir

Aegean Coast Serenity

Izmir offers premier boutique clinics with a highly personalized touch and outstanding privacy. Known for its gentle clinical approach and slower, scenic coastal pace, it is highly attractive for couples prioritizing a quiet journey.

Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI)

A high-precision technique where a single high-quality sperm is injected directly into a mature egg. This approach is highly recommended for overcoming severe male factor infertility, including low sperm count or motility issues.

Save up to 76% vs. US costs

Standard IVF (In Vitro Fertilization)

The foundational treatment involving controlled ovarian hyperstimulation, precise egg retrieval under mild sedation, laboratory fertilization, and careful embryo cultivation before transferring the embryo back to the uterus.

Save up to 75% vs. US costs

Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT-A/M)

Advanced genetic screening of embryo biopsies prior to transfer. This identifies chromosomal abnormalities (aneuploidy) or specific single-gene disorders, significantly improving implantation rates and preventing genetic diseases.

Highly cost-efficient genetic laboratory rates

Oocyte Cryopreservation (Egg Freezing)

For women wishing to preserve their fertility for social or medical reasons. Oocytes are retrieved and preserved using vitrification (ultra-rapid freezing) to maintain egg viability for future use.

Step 1: Diagnostic Assessment & Remote Consultation

Submit your previous fertility test records, semen analyses, and hormone panels to PlacidWay. Turkish specialists will review your clinical history, arrange a virtual video consultation, and design a customized hormonal stimulation protocol.

Step 2: Stimulation Phase & Local Monitoring

Depending on your plan, you may begin ovarian stimulation medications at home or travel to Turkey on Day 2 of your menstrual cycle. Regular ultrasound scans and blood tests are performed to monitor follicle development carefully.

Step 3: Egg Retrieval & Fertilization

Once follicles reach optimal size, a trigger injection is administered. Egg retrieval is performed 36 hours later under light sedation. At the same time, the male partner provides a semen sample, and fertilization is executed via ICSI in the lab.

Step 4: Embryo Cultivation & Genetic Testing

The fertilized embryos are monitored in advanced incubators for 3 to 5 days until they reach the blastocyst stage. If requested, a biopsy is performed for pre-implantation genetic testing (PGT-A/M) to ensure only highly viable, healthy embryos are chosen.

Step 5: Embryo Transfer & Post-Treatment Care

The selected healthy embryo is transferred into the uterus under ultrasound guidance—a quick, painless procedure requiring no anesthesia. After 1 to 2 days of rest, you can return home and perform your pregnancy test 10 to 12 days later.

"After three failed IVF attempts in London, we were emotionally exhausted and financially drained. Deciding to travel to Istanbul was the best choice we ever made. The clinic's attention to detail, advanced ICSI procedures, and customized stimulation protocol resulted in our beautiful baby boy. The standard of care was simply exceptional."

"We needed PGT-M screening due to a genetic condition in our family. The costs in the US were completely out of reach. We coordinated our cycle in Turkey through PlacidWay. The doctors were brilliant, and the laboratory clean-room standards were incredibly impressive. We are now pregnant with a healthy, screened baby!"
