Assisted Reproductive Technology ( Vitro Fertilisation )

In vitro fertilization and human embryonic stem cell research are two of the most popular and controversial topics that are being discussed today. Lee Silver, from the film defines in vitro fertilization as:

Dr. Schiewe is the high complexity lab director at Ovagen Fertility Newport Beach and the scientific laboratory director at California Cryobank. Over the last three decades, he has helped IVF labs worldwide protect and transfer embryos in the blastocyst stage and improve pregnancy rates. Dr. Schiewe has published over 35 peer-reviewed papers and 70 abstracts. He also serves as a journal reviewer for Fertility and Sterility and Theriogenology.

‘In Vitro Fertilisation (IVF)’, is an article that has been published on the Better Health website by the Victorian Government, written with the purpose to educate and inform the reader of IVF related information and the process. The writing is clear, succinct and easy to follow and is therefore aimed at members of the general public who are interested in the IVF process. The article outlines the IVF procedure, risk and possible side effects and is claims that it was written for educational purposes only.

In gamete intrafallopian transfer (GIFT) a mixture of sperm and eggs is placed directly into a woman’s fallopian tubes using laparoscopy following a transvaginal ovum retrieval.

With new technology evolving, many couples and single adults who are told they are infertile are now able to pursue their dreams of becoming a parent with the help of donor insemination and in vitro fertilization. Within the next five to ten years after I earn my college degree and become stable enough to provide for a child, I would like to have children of my own. With these great advancements in reproductive technology, doctors can help me overcome many obstacles that I may face in the future when trying to conceive a child.

Reproductive technology has advanced in recent years and with that advancement has come a debate on what is ethical, moral or beneficial to those who are involved. Applying the principles of ethics to reproductive technologies can aid health professionals toward the best outcome for everyone involved. With applying the ethic principles, one must first choose whose welfare that is being considered-the potential parents, the embryo, or both? An embryo is not able to convey autonomy, but people still consider its welfare anyway. There are existing conflicts as to when during development does an embryo become a human being that has rights. There are many who want

Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) is a method that allows individuals the ability to biologically conceive a child. Individual’s who use the in vitro fertilization method has the opportunity to identify genetic defects in the embryos by using preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PDG) . However, having this ability raises various ethical issues.

Can it better mankind or is it an abomination against God. Religion plays a big part to the devout and their beliefs that they put in God. Science has its findings and personal beliefs on this subject that it’s not against God. The two have compelling arguments about the subject matter and pulls you into a spiritual and logical tug of war. It involves a political point of view and a ban that was lifted by the President of the United States. I will give you the facts on both points of view and my personal struggle on this subject (Mandal, 2016).

Assisted reproductive technology(ART) is a cycle of fertility treatments that includes in vitro fertilization and intrafallopian transfer (Sunderam et al., 2015).

Assisted reproductive technologies include any fertilization involving manipulation of gametes/ embryos outside the human body and transfer of gametes/embryos into the body. They offer biomedical parenthood to various infertile couples who have often spent years trying to have a child and have exhausted all other avenues to have a child of their own. The new reproductive technologies give great help to infertile couples and make many new reproductive arrangements possible. The possibilities available for couples contemplating parenthood in unconventional ways under new reproductive techniques are two-party and third-party assisted reproduction. Assisted reproduction can raise some ethical concerns such as - the selection of the sex, how to

Hello this is Fey Pock and welcome to 96.1 Knight Radio, where we have all the latest news for you. Today’s topic is Assisted Reproductive Technology. Assisted Reproductive Technology, known as ART, is a type of procedure that is used to achieve pregnancy. The most commonly known type is In-Vitro Fertilization, or IVF, which is when the egg from the female is fertilized by the sperm from the male outside of the body and then replaced inside the uterus to have the highest chance of pregnancy. This may be viewed as “Playing God”, but it is widely used without the world for the greater good. There are many reasons why this technology should be used widely throughout the world, such as eliminating genetic diseases in the near future, allowing homosexual

In-Vitro Fertilization is a hot topic and brings about many ethical considerations and questions from many. Quebec is experiencing a very tough dilemma of having to scale back their IVF program in which it is being claimed that the funded treatments may have been overused and need to be cut back. My first question when reading this article has to do with the word “overuse”, and wondering how that is defined? I think this would help to better evaluate ways the government could implement a program like this. I feel as though I am torn as to what I think with regards to if IVF should be a fully government funded treatment. Although I think that IVF procedures are extremely important and currently far to expensive, I am unsure as to if I think it should

Infertility affects about 13 to 14% of reproductive couples. It is the failure to conceive after a year of properly timed and unprotected intercourse.

Reproduction is a fundamental right given to everybody. Unfortunately, there are some of us no reproductive capabilities. In today’s world advances in reproductive techniques such as invitro fertilization, egg or sperm donation and gestational surrogacy have sparked new interests to women who do not have the ability to reproduce on their own. Legal, moral and ethical issues have been raised about these advanced methods of reprodution used to substitute natural conception and birth. These advanced techniques raise issues concerning the rights and parenthood. What does occur in the process of sperm donation? What happens when a surrogate mother refuses to give the child? What are the motives of the surrogate mother and why seeking parents

Artificial reproductive technology (ART) is defined as procedures which stimulate a woman 's ovaries to produce eggs, the eggs are then removed, combined with sperm, and then returned to a woman 's body (Bell, 2016). ART is becoming more and more popular throughout that globe. This method of conceiving children gives women who may be struggling with infertility options that were not possible before the advent of such methods. ART is relevant to the sociological definition of global health because it is evidence of the fact that our world has become interdependent especially when it comes to medical technology. However with ART comes the notion of the culture of disguise and in many countries this is an integral part of artificial reproductive technology process. With that being said, sociologists should look to study and understand the culture of disguise in ART as it pertains to global health and it shapes interactions between people and the society they live in.
