The Supreme Court on Wednesday, October 18, allowed a woman with Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser (MRKH) Syndrome to undergo surrogacy using a donor egg. The woman petitioner has been suffering from MRKH Syndrome, a condition that prevents her from producing eggs. The apex court passed the verdict by staying the operation of a recent amendment to the Surrogacy Rules with respect to the petitioner's case. The amendment, introduced in March 2023, prohibits the use of donor eggs for gestational surrogacy of an intending couple. Law Says Surrogate Mother May Not Be Genetically Related to Child Born Through Surrogacy, Centre Tells Supreme Court.
