Forest Conceptions is a full-service surrogacy agency operating in California. It was organized as Forest Conceptions LLC and registered with the California Secretary of State in 2016, and the company remains active. It is a for-profit business, with Yelin Zhou listed as its chief executive and manager.
According to the agency, it guides both surrogates and intended parents through the entire surrogacy process. A full-service model of this kind generally means the same organization stays involved from the first inquiry through the birth, coordinating matching, case management, and the medical, legal, and financial steps along the way, rather than handling one piece and referring out the rest.
Alongside its surrogacy program, Forest Conceptions also offers egg donation, so intended parents who need donor eggs as well as a gestational carrier can arrange both through one agency.
The company's branding reflects the same focus: the trademark "Forest Conceptions Surrogacy for the Modern World" was filed in 2017 and is registered to Yelin Zhou. Federal labor condition filings suggest the agency employs professional staff, though no public headcount is published.
More detail on how the program is structured, including eligibility requirements for surrogates, fees for intended parents, and surrogate compensation, appears in the sections below.
