AIH (artificial insemination by husband): A procedure in which a fine catheter (tube) is inserted through the cervix (the natural opening of the uterus) into the uterus (the womb) to deposit a sperm sample from the woman's mate directly into the uterus. The purpose of this procedure is to achieve fertilization and pregnancy. AIH is distinguished from artificial insemination by donor (AID) in which the donor is a man other than the woman's mate. AIH is also known as homologous insemination.
AID (artificial insemination by donor): A procedure in which a fine catheter (tube) is inserted through the cervix (the natural opening of the uterus) into the uterus (the womb) to deposit a sperm sample from a donor other than the woman's mate directly into the uterus. The purpose of this procedure is to achieve fertilization and pregnancy. AID is also called heterologous insemination. AID is distinguished from homologous insemination, which is artificial insemination by husband (AIH).
Egg donation: The process by which a fertile woman donates her eggs to be used in the treatment of others or for research. Harvesting of a freshly ovulated, unfertilised egg from one female; the egg may be fertilised in vitro (i.e. "test tube fertilisation") and implanted into a surrogate who cannot ovulate. Used in cloning.
Embryo donation is a well-established and successful form of assisted conception treatment. It offers hope for select groups of couples who previously thought they could never have children. Embryo donation is usually less expensive and has a fewer medical complications compared to in-vitro fertilization (IVF). The success of embryo donation compares favourably with egg donation. Relatively few countries have legislation addressing embryo donation. Legislation governing embryo donation varies between different countries and even within the same countries such as in the USA and Australia, where it varies from state to state. Embryo donation is a legally accepted form of treatment in the United Kingdom.
Surrogacy: The process involving a woman carrying a baby for another person. In Host surrogacy, an IVF procedure is used so that the surrogate carries a child that is not genetically related to her. Part surrogacy involves the surrogate being inseminated with the man’s semen from the commissioning couple.
All of these are now being used by couples in Britain supervised by the Human fertilisation and Embryology Authority, through there have been many arguments about their morality,
This is an issue for religions as many of the opponents of fertility treatments have accused doctors of playing God. However, to the parents concerned, fertility treatments have been regarded as a miracle.
In this essay I wrote about how treatments happens e.g. in AIH, a fine catheter (tube) is inserted through the cervix (the natural opening of the uterus) into the uterus (the womb) to deposit a sperm sample from the woman's mate directly into the uterus. The purpose of this procedure is to achieve fertilization and pregnancy. I tried to explain every part of the treatment.
I think Surrogacy is wrong whereas I think the test which doesn’t involved third party are ok because I think including someone you don’t even know is totally wrong. I think egg or embryo donations are also wrong, because I think lives begins from the egg and no one have the right to kill someone. In the Ten Commandments God says “Do Not Kill” which means killing an embryo or egg is also wrong.
