Nigeria Becomes Global Hub for IVF and Surrogacy Services

Nigeria is becoming a global hub for fertility treatments, with over 80 registered IVF centers providing world-class care. Intended parents, including those from the diaspora and international clients, are increasingly choosing Nigeria for IVF and surrogacy due to its advanced technology, cultural understanding, and lower costs.

Peace Mmewurum-Udeh, a Fertility Counselor at Making Families Surrogacy Limited, stated that success rates for women under 35 now exceed 80% per cycle, comparable to global averages. The cost of an IVF cycle in Nigeria ranges from N4.5 million to N6.5 million, significantly lower than the $20,000 to $30,000 in the US.

Surrogacy journeys that typically take 18–24 months overseas can now begin within weeks in Nigeria. Making Families Surrogacy Limited offers all-inclusive packages covering medical screening, IVF, surrogate arrangement, legal support, and delivery, ensuring transparency with no hidden fees.

This shift allows families to remain close to their cultural roots while accessing necessary fertility treatments.
