Surrogate mother
The Surrogacy Act was passed in Iran in 2004 to combat infertility that affects one out of five couples in the country. Surrogacy is prohibited in several countries, such as Spain and England. It is legal in Germany, but only on a volunteer basis. Iran's government believes that solving fertility problems also leads to a reduced number of divorces.
