2. Real Case Studies
Case 1: Ms. Zhang from Beijing, 37 years old, bilateral tubal blockage
Ms. Zhang could not conceive naturally due to bilateral tubal blockage and had two failed IVF attempts in China. At the end of 2025, she began researching surrogacy in Kyrgyzstan and started a cycle through the Tulip Reproductive Center in March 2026. Using her own eggs and a surrogate, she produced 6 blastocysts, of which 3 healthy embryos were obtained after PGT screening. The first transfer was successful, and the surrogate mother gave birth to a healthy baby boy in December 2026. The total cost was approximately 460,000 RMB, covering all medical expenses, surrogate compensation, legal services, and agency management fees. Ms. Zhang and her husband were very satisfied with the outcome and are currently preparing for a second child transfer.
Case 2: Mr. and Mrs. Li from Shenzhen, male azoospermia
Mr. Li was diagnosed with non-obstructive azoospermia, and the evaluation recommended using donor sperm combined with surrogacy. In June 2026, they chose the Tulip Reproductive Center in Kyrgyzstan, using high-quality donor sperm from a US sperm bank combined with Mrs. Li's eggs for embryo cultivation. They obtained 5 blastocysts, and the first transfer was successful. The surrogate mother gave birth to a baby girl in November 2026. The total cost was approximately 430,000 RMB, including about 28,000 RMB for the donor sperm. Mr. Li stated that the entire process was transparent and efficient, and communication with the hospital's Chinese-speaking service team was smooth.
Case 3: Ms. Liu from Shanghai, 41 years old, diminished ovarian reserve
Due to her advanced age and diminished ovarian reserve, Ms. Liu had a very low chance of success with her own eggs. In 2026, she chose an egg donation plus surrogacy plan in Kyrgyzstan. Through a rigorously screened egg donor, combined with her husband's sperm, embryo cultivation was completed in collaboration with Thailand's Onelife Wanlai Reproductive Center, resulting in 3 high-quality blastocysts. The transfer was successful on the first attempt, and the surrogate mother gave birth smoothly at the end of December 2026. The total cost was approximately 520,000 RMB, including egg donor compensation, medical fees, surrogacy fees, and legal services. Ms. Liu said it was one of the best decisions she had ever made.
