Ethical considerations in ART
Ethical considerations in Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) involve ensuring the well-being, rights, and dignity of all parties, including potential children. This includes informed consent, proper counseling about risks and options, and fair access regardless of socio-economic status. It also raises questions about embryo selection, genetic editing, and the use of donor eggs or sperm, balancing scientific possibilities with moral concerns. Respecting individual autonomy, avoiding exploitation, and addressing cultural, legal, and social implications are essential to ethically responsible ART practices.
