Abstract

« Pendant plus de quarante ans, depuis Amandine (première naissance en France après fécondation in vitro en 1982), j’ai accompagné de nombreuses patientes et des couples préoccupés par leur désir d’enfant. Les récents progrès de la médecine de la reproduction ont permis à ces couples, le plus souvent, de réaliser leur rêve. Mais des techniques innovantes se développent sur des terres encore peu connues : gestation hors du corps, greffe d’utérus, clonage reproductif, ovules artificiels, embryons synthétiques... Croire que tout cela est possible renforce la volonté d’avoir un enfant à tout prix. Cependant, il est important de connaître les dangers et les risques que peuvent occasionner ces évolutions à venir. Faire un enfant n’est pas la seule condition du bonheur. »"

Abstract

"In order to reproduce by medical means, gametes-the sperm and eggs-must be taken from the human body. Oftentimes this requires the use of pharmaceuticals to enhance or stimulate fertility. Once gametes are taken, they require storage. After the appropriate diagnostic tests are run, gametes are used for inseminating procedures such as in-vitro fertilization (IVF) or artificial insemination (AI). Gamete retrieval and storage are part of the early phases of medical reproduction (MR). Each of these steps have many substeps along the way. This chapter will detail some of the processes of MR prior to insemination that use resources and release carbon emissions. It should be noted that not every phase of the MR spectrum are used by all clients. Some people may avail themselves of gamete retrieval but do not proceed to storage; others may eventually use the stored gametes for fertilization but not have a live birth. Some will have an MR birth without needing to use a neo-natal intensive care unit (NICU), while other medical consumers will use every aspect of the MR spectrum. Regardless of which MR procedures are used, carbon is emitted from a variety of sources in each step. It should also be remembered that people using the MR industry are not necessarily suspected to be, or diagnosed with, infertility. Since the MR industry caters to lifestyle choices surrounding reproduction, it eagerly serves preferences of fertile people who want a particular reproductive experience, as well as the preferences of the infertile. Both can, and do, use MR prior to insemination"-- "In order to reproduce by medical means, gametes-the sperm and eggs-must be taken from the human body.
