Quatrième de couverture : "Le développement des techniques en lien avec la procréation est une source de questionnement éthique. Le positionnement éthique est en évolution, sans cesse remis en question. Jusqu'alors les questions éthiques relatives à la procréation médicalement assistée n'ont pas considéré la notion de risque comme un élément déterminant à prendre en compte, peut-être parce que les risques ont été peu décrits ou omis, sont inconnus ou niés, inaccessibles aux personnes concernées. Le risque est-il tabou dans le domaine de la procréation ? Une évaluation des risques en lien avec la procréation médicalement assistée est proposée. Qui est touché ou concerné par ces risques ? La prise de risques est-elle volontaire ? Quels sont les risques et leurs bénéfices ? Nous tenterons d'identifier comment ces risques sont perçus et pourquoi ils sont acceptés ou refusés. Par quels moyens peut-on influencer leur perception ? Est-ce que les seuils d'acceptation du risque sont définissables ou modifiables ? Enfin, nous tenterons de déterminer si ces risques ont un rôle à jouer dans le questionnement éthique lié à la procréation médicalement assistée. Existe-t-il une ambiguïté entre d'une part une volonté forte d'éviter les risques chez les enfants à naître et d'autre part une prise de risque considérée comme acceptable pour la mère ou la donneuse ?"

Infertility affects about five million individuals of childbearing age in the United States, yet infertility is a subject about which many people are reluctant to talk. This book discusses extensively many options available to individuals struggling with infertility. Infertility can result from a number of causes and affects men and women in equal numbers. Difficulty conceiving can take a heavy toll on couples both physically and psychologically and can lead to depression and marital discord. There are, however, many options available to those struggling with infertility for having a child. These include innovative medical procedures and powerful drugs as well as a variety of alternative treatment approaches, surrogacy, and adoption. A part of Greenwood's Health and Medical Issues Today series, this book provides an overview of these options and examines the many health, financial, and ethical decisions of each that must be considered when choosing one. Part I explores what causes infertility and the history and evolution of its treatment and then examines the options available today, detailing how they work, their success rates, and their risks. Additionally, it addresses controversial topics such as the legislation of assisted reproductive technologies and the regulation of fertility clinics. Part II delves into the many scientific, economic, and ethical debates that surround infertility treatment, presenting a clear and objective analysis of the issues. Part III provides a variety of useful supplementary materials, including case studies, a timeline of critical events, a glossary, and a directory of resources.
