FLORES, Javier. Evolution of reproductive technologies. A view from biomedicine. Inter disciplina [online]. 2022, vol.10, n.28, pp.355-368. Epub 05-Dic-2022. ISSN 2448-5705. https://doi.org/10.22201/ceiich.24485705e.2022.28.83302.
Assisted reproductive technologies (ART) have had an incessant evolution since the second third of the twentieth century -beginning with artificial insemination in humans- and each development arises modern scenarios for human reproduction. Infertility is what drives the advancement of these techniques and the knowledge associated with them. Because this condition is related to organic disorders, biomedicine is the main field of knowledge that aims to solve it in women, men, or infertile couples, but more recently other areas such as engineering, design and new materials have been incorporated to the task. This assignment has the objective to confront the human inability to reproduce, sometimes it results in desirable side effects that have a potential impact on the ways of reproductive association in our species. This text describes the characteristics of the advances that have emerged from scientific and technological research in this century and takes a particular look at transplants, artificial organs and the artificial production of sex cells. It examines the side effects of these techniques and the debates surrounding them on the present and future of human reproduction.
