India Bans Gay Couples From Surrogacy

New laws in India now mean that it is illegal for gay couples to use a surrogate, with a man and a woman having to have been married for a minimum of two years to be applicable.

The new restrictions also exclude single women, with the country clamping down on the industry that has been a high commercial success.
