Spanish Heaven For The Need Sperm and egg cells

10:57 PM
Most countries, donor sperm or egg cells are very rare, even banned altogether. But, not with Spain, a country known for fertility tourism, never shortage of donors in this regard.
Infertile couples from different countries came to this country, in order to get donor sperm, eggs and even embryos. In addition to having many donors, the country is also superior in terms of artificial insemination technology.
Than the UK for example, infertile couples who need donor for artificial insemination, have waited an average of between 18 months to 2 years. And that's the success rate is not too high, only about 40-45 percent.
While Spain, usually within five months of the booking procedure of artificial insemination can be done. Owned technology also supports a higher success rate, which reached 65 percent.
Sangking number of donors available, the price is not too expensive. For prospective buyers from the UK, clinics IVI (intravaginal Insemination) in Barcelona just to fix the price 9,000 euros (about Rp 100 million) already include airfare, accommodation, scan, and blood tests.
Compared to other fertility treatments in place, the price is quite cheap. In the UK, intracytoplasmic sperm injection to overcome infertility in men cost more than Rp 200 million for a single injection.
Excerpted from the Guardian on Tuesday (8/24/2010), the number of donor sperm and egg cells in Spain could not be separated from local government policy. For every woman who is willing to be donors, provided a fee of 900 euros (about Rp 10 million) for each one egg.
This policy could be emulated by the British, but directly confronted with the various controversies. Some critics, rewards can lead to large amounts of people troop to become donors, solely with the motivation to earn money.
Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA), a body which deals with donor sperm and eggs in the UK also suggested that limits the use of donor sperm from one person to be improved. From the beginning to 10 families at most, to 20 families.
Again, this proposal gets opposition, this time related to the possibility of incestuous marriages on the children of artificial insemination. Greater the number of recipients of sperm from a donor whose identity must be kept secret, the greater the odds it will happen.
If the proposal is rejected, the HFEA seems to be thinking about other steps that are more acceptable. However, donor shortage is the real thing in England, while 1 in 7 couples in these countries have problems with fertility.
Medical technology is growing rapidly, especially in the field of obstetrics and gynecology has enormous implications for the world. Discovery of techniques of artificial insemination or IVF (in vitro fertilization / IVF) is one of them.IVF demand continues to increase each year in the world, including in Indonesia became a phenomenon in itself. Through the insemination technique, it is possible to get a woman pregnant with donated sperm, either from her own husband or a male donor, which is stored in a sperm bank. Abroad, and a sperm bank donor practice is not new. But in Indonesia, discourse and donor sperm bank into a controversy because votes in opposition to the norms, culture and religion in society.Not long ago, the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) in the National Conference (National Conference) MUI to VIII in Jakarta has even issued a fatwa that forbids the practice of donor or the sale of sperm. In the observer's eye health problems of the Faculty of Public Health University of Indonesia (FKM UI) Prof. Does Sampoerna dr MPH, sperm donor practices in the country is judged to be possible. The presence of sperm bank is also not appropriate because Indonesia has a different culture."Bank of sperm with a commercial purpose is not right to do in Indonesia. In a culture in Indonesia is mainly related to religious issues. Purpose of the bank's sperm will produce offspring, but in Indonesia is only valid if the husband's sperm for insemination of his wife," said Sampoerna Does the Kompas.com on Thursday (29.07.10) in Jakarta.Although viewed from the side of health will help some, but according to the Chairman of the Scientific College of Public Health Association of Indonesia (IAKMI), implementation of hygiene measures should be linked with the norms, religious values, culture in the country. "This is due to consider the issue of religion, culture, norms, human rights, especially for multicultural countries," said Prof Does.In health care ethics, advanced Does, there are four basic principles that must be followed before taking action. These four basic ethics is respect the dignity or rights of others, doing good, not harm, and justice. The principle of doing good say, a word Does, to be seen whether it will harm the interests of individuals other people or not. Because the ethics of doing good to be maximized is the benefit of individuals and communities, while the harm must be minimized."If the sperm to a sperm bank to give to others, and know others will lead to clamor for violating norms and religion. Therefore, that permitted the conduct of artificial insemination between husband and wife own. That is, sperm banks here can not be used, "Does Prof said.Related to the practice of IVF, in fact the government has made provision in Article 16 of Law No.23/1992 Health and Regulation 73 of the Minister of Health in 1992 that it authorized only set in a legally married couple, and then using this sperm and egg pair which is then implanted in the womb of his wife.

If you own how to assess this? On the one hand, the need for offspring is ideal for any married couple. However, on the other hand, there are aspects that are direct opposites in it, one religion. Now, just how these choices will be taken.
