Bioethics and Artificial Insemination

Bioethics and artificial insemination There are many problems in the analysis of new technologies, regardless of whether they are beneficial or harmful for the technology, and who is influencing each time a new technology is born. This is especially true when dealing with artificial insemination techniques. Along with the mainstreaming of artificial insemination culture, many articles have discussed the ethics of such decision making. Most of these articles were written by feminist authors to discuss the impact of this new technology on women and how it will affect women's role as a social mother.

The historical story of artificial insemination has been successful and the fact that artificial insemination of animals is globally accepted has been accepted globally such as cryopreservation of gametes, ovarian stimulation and circulation regulation, embryo freezing and cloning Will give momentum to the innovation and development of technologies that are now familiar. Many of the principles currently used for artificial insemination are adopted from the study of livestock, especially the study of cattle. New interest in sperm cleansing procedures through the use of frozen / thawed donor samples and introduction of in vitro fertilization is the most important milestone in the history of artificial insemination.

For humans, the situation is different. Artificial insemination was originally intended to help the couple pregnant in case of physical or mental infertility in males. Currently, artificial insemination with semen without homology is most commonly used due to unexplained mild male factor infertility. In the last century, donor insemination was mainly used for male infertility due to azoospermia or very low sperm numbers and hereditary genetic diseases associated with the Y chromosome. Today, women who are not male partners (lesbians or single women) use the donated artificial insemination more frequently.

Artificial insemination can use reproductive assistance technology, sperm provision and animal rearing technology. Available artificial insemination techniques include intrauterine insemination and intrauterine insemination. Beneficiaries of artificial insemination may interfere with complete sexual intercourse if they are single women, lesbian-related women, heterosexual but infertile male partners, or physical defective women. Cervical Insertion Artificial Insemination (ICI) is the simplest and most common insemination technique that can be used at home for self-insemination without the need of a physician. Artificial insemination is more expensive and invasive than natural fertilization (ie, by sexual insemination) and may require professional assistance.
