9781806866403: In Pursuit of Parenthood: Infertility, Assisted Reproductive Technology, and Surrogacy

Synopsis

The legal and societal implications for individuals experiencing infertility and considering various types of assisted reproductive technology have become increasingly complex in recent decades. New regulations surrounding surrogacy agreements have attempted to provide more protection to both surrogate mothers and prospective parents. To better understand this nuanced experience, this multidisciplinary volume focuses on families navigating these methods of reproduction.

In Pursuit of Parenthood: Infertility, Assisted Reproductive Technology, and Surrogacy covers a wide array of topics including infertility (e.g., psychological consequences, the social context, and relationship coping; surrogacy (international and domestic surrogacy, formal and informal surrogacy negotiations, LGBTQ+ families choosing surrogacy,) and fertility treatments (decisions to pursue in vitro fertilization, intrauterine insemination, and sperm donation, including financial, religious, and political limitations).
