Surrogate motherhood is a practice that is increasingly standing out from the already known forms of reproduction, primarily because of its evolution in such a short period. These fast-paced changes entail a truly complex reality for the practice that requires the attention of bioethics, law, and politics. At present, surrogate motherhood is a valid option for, among others, male same-sex couples who wish to be parents. However, legal and economic barriers that bring about inequity and injustice remain. Therefore, it becomes necessary to analyse and synthesise these topics.
