Surrogacy laws in Australia are VERY, very difficult. At any given moment the carrier can decide to not follow through and essentially keep your baby as their own. The amount of money that needs to go into it, and also if you go overseas to do it, is worth putting towards IUI, IVF and further fertility treatments here in Australia.
Definitely go and speak to GP about next steps. There are things you can try before trying IVF but as the other responder said the surrogacy laws in Australia are pretty scary and vary greatly from state to state.
Plus if you wanted to use your partners sperm and your egg you'd have to go through IVF anyway. So I'd be trying that myself first.
Your looking for a surragocy? You want another women to carry your baby? With your eggs or her eggs? When the is child born its not even yours you have to actually then adopt it. Your comment is ridiculous and upsetting to people who really do need a surrogacy sorry but you need to do more research and go to see an actual fertility clinic. The checks they do compared to a GP are completely different. I'm someone who has been down the IVF road. Get a referal to a IVF clinic and get checked and monitored properly. If nothing happens or is found wrong you can then look at IVF surrogacy is your very last option.
My sister tried for 5 years, no issues with her or her husband. They had ivf to have my nephew which was successful first attempt then they tried naturally for 4 weeks and fell naturally straight away with my niece.
