Overview

Key facts

  • It takes as its starting point a person or couple who want to make a baby but can't, due to their infertility, advanced age, sexuality or lack of partner.

  • The choice to have a sperm or egg donor
  • Using a known or an anonymous donor
  • Using a surrogate (and, if so, doing so in an ethical way)
