Egg Donation Background:

The sale and even donation of human eggs is a relatively new ethical issue that faces society today. Reproduction is a basic fundamental right given to mankind. Unfortunately, there are some that have little or no reproductive capabilities. For this reason, advances in reproductive techniques such as egg or sperm donation have sparked new interest with women and couples who do not have the ability to reproduce on their own. It also impacts the bio research area where these techniques have been used create embryos for use in areas such as stem cell research. I would like to understand how the ethics surrounding egg donation are viewed from different perspectives.
