RESUMO

Embryo donation is one of assisted reproductive technologies used in the past few decades. Application of this technology, like any other novel biomedical service, has raised certain moral, religious, legal and social concerns. This paper deals with moral / philosophical concerns involved in embryo donation technology, taking into account the "general moral challenges concerning embryo donation", "moral problems arising during the process of donation" and "moral problems appearing after donation", and attempts to critically evaluate them. As a preliminary conclusion, utilizing embryo donation technology could be morally justifiable provided that certain moral and professional constraints are observed and probable abuses are prevented

In this qualitative study, 400 couples were randomly selected among couples referred to Avicenna Infertility Clinic for infertility work-up and treatment.

The mean age of the couples [21 to 63 years] was 34 +/- 6 years. The preliminary diagnosis of infertility related to gender included 21.9% female, 65.5% male, 7.1% both and 5.4% unexplained causes of infertility. By regarding a cutoff point of 24 for the GHQ-24 questionnaire, 4% of the individuals showed an abnormal score. The abnormal scores were in domains of social dysfunction [43.5%], anxiety [10.9%], somatization [9.5%] and depression [3.3%] Significant statistical difference were seen between male and female participants in total GHQ-28 scores, as well as somatization and depression, [p < 0.05], where the female participants showed worse psychological health states [p < 0.05]. About 4% of the infertile patients attending Avicenna Infertility Clinic seem to be at risk of psychological disorders and provision of psychological health care alongside the medical treatment is advisable
