When dealing with infertility, technology has only come so far; especially for women who cannot produce healthy eggs. Even with treatment to produce more eggs the outcome is not always successful since the eggs produced are not healthy. Usually, the only opportunity to have children was through adoption. The solution and another chance for these women come in the form of egg donors. Egg donors are typically women under the age of 30, in excellent health, and have been screened both medically and psychologically. These women undergo treatment to produce healthy eggs for the women who cannot produce their own. Egg donation is the answer to some women’s prayers in relation to infertility. Would you call egg donation a treatment to infertility or an alternative option to infertility? How far does technology need to come in reproductive law till we can solve most infertility questions? Do you think the field of research in infertility is at a disadvantage because it is usually a “woman’s problem”? What are your thoughts? www.ericksonlaw.net
