Total transfers (all egg sources, the CDC's denominator): 2020: 711 · 2021: 899 · 2022: 1,020

Volume estimate = the CDC's reported all-ages share of transfers that used a gestational carrier × the program's total transfers (the transfer count the CDC uses as that share's denominator). Where the CDC suppressed the all-ages share, the age-group shares are used instead and the tile says so.

Nearly all donor-egg transfers today are frozen embryo transfers — the embryo is frozen for genetic testing or scheduling whether the eggs were fresh or banked — so that is the figure to compare.

Surrogacy law in Indiana

Indiana voids surrogate agreements by statute, but it does not criminalize surrogacy and it does not cap compensation. Section 31-20-1-2 voids an agreement described in section 31-20-1-1, which reaches any term requiring a surrogate to become pregnant, undergo medical treatment or waive parental rights. The parentage route exists but is judge-made and narrow: a carrier cannot disestablish her own maternity, while an intended mother can establish hers by clear and convincing evidence. Ivy does not arrange journeys in Indiana. This page sets out the text and what follows from it.
