FERTILITY TOURISM IN INDIA

'We have been doing IVF since 1991, and perform about 300 IVF cycles every year. You can take a guided tour of the clinic online.'

And while Mumbai's Malpani Infertility Clinic, run by doctor couple Aniruddha and Anjali Malpani, was responsible for those claims, it is just one of many which have sprung up across India as the country becomes a hub for 'fertility tourism'.
And they all make similar claims, of offering ' healthy young fertile Indian women', 'superovulated exclusively for you'.
Some patients, lured by such promises, come looking for egg donors, while others come in search of surrogate mothers.
And according to doctors, an increasing number of them are from Singapore.
