Gay Male Considering Surrogate

Hi there,

I'm considering looking into a surrogate mother to help me conceive a child. It is something I have been thinking about for a while, but have not done much planning behind. I guess I'm still in the thinking stages of this.

However, I was particularly interested in surrogate mothers who were from Portugal or have Portuguese nationality.

Any assistance you could offer would be appreciated.

Regards.

Your best option is to contact an agency or a lawyer who works to make surrogate arrangements.

Good luck.
