Reasons for Objection to IVF

IVF is a kind of medical behavior that the recipient female's egg is fertilized in vitro with the spouse's or donor's sperm through artificial assisted reproduction technology, and then the embryo is implanted into the recipient mother. Although the development of IVF technology provides a useful solution for infertile couples, it also faces opposition from the social and ethical levels. This article will analyze the reasons why IVF is opposed from four aspects.

1. Religious belief

Religious belief is an important reason for the opposition of IVF technology. Some religious doctrines believe that human reproduction should conform to the will of God. Under the guidance of this view, IVF is regarded as human intervention in the process of God's creation, and as a violation of God's will. For example, the Catholic doctrine says that IVF is a violation of human fertility and violates the provisions of God. Therefore, some groups with deep religious beliefs strongly oppose IVF. At the same time, the existence of the female image of the "Virgin" also led to IVF being opposed in religious beliefs. In some religions, pregnancy is regarded as a sacred thing, and IVF technology is considered to deprive women of the sacred privilege of experiencing natural pregnancy and childbirth. Therefore, religious belief provides an important point of view for the opposition to IVF technology.

2. Ethical and moral considerations

Another objection to IVF technology is ethical and moral considerations. Some people worry that IVF may lead to inequality and deprivation of life. Because IVF requires expensive medical expenses, and only a part of the population can afford it, this will exacerbate the differentiation of social strata. In addition, IVF may produce redundant embryos, which may be discarded or used for research purposes, triggering ethical disputes over the life value of embryos. In addition, IVF technology has also caused some moral problems. For example, some people believe that the choice of embryo gender, appearance, IQ and other characteristics violates the principle of individual dignity and equality. This possibility of selectively tampering with genes has raised concerns about the possible moral problems caused by IVF technology.

3. Worry about children's psychological and emotional problems in their growth

Another reason for opposing IVF technology is to worry about the psychological and emotional problems in the growth of children. Some people worry that IVF may feel inferior or uneasy because of its difference from the way of reproduction. They may face confusion and confusion about their identity and origin. These puzzles may have a negative impact on their mental health, and may even lead to psychological problems. In addition, IVF may also bring some challenges to family relations. For infertile couples, they may face difficulties in establishing special relationships with children other than their own children. At the same time, the complexity of kinship between biological parents and infertile couples may also exert pressure on family relations.

4. Uncertainty and risk of medical technology

Finally, IVF technology is also faced with the uncertainty and risk of medical technology, which is also the reason why some people oppose it. Although the success rate of IVF technology is increasing, there is still a risk of failure. For infertile couples, this means that they may not be able to successfully obtain their own children after going through the tedious treatment process. In addition, IVF technology may also bring some physical risks. Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome may be caused by ovulation induction, which may lead to some serious side effects. In addition, IVF technology is also related to premature delivery, fetal development problems and congenital diseases.

summary

Although the development of IVF technology has provided a solution for infertile couples, it has also suffered opposition from religious beliefs, ethical and moral considerations, psychological and emotional problems and medical uncertainty. These factors together led to the controversy and questioning of IVF. Understanding the reasons for opposing IVF will help to enhance people's understanding of this technology and conduct more comprehensive discussions and debates.
