ENGUER GONSALBEZ, Pablo  y  RAMON FERNANDEZ, Francisca. Bioethical and legal dilemmas of assisted reproduction in today's society in Spain. rev.latinoam.bioet. [online]. 2018, vol.18, n.1, pp.104-135. ISSN 1657-4702.  https://doi.org/10.18359/rlbi.3160.

This paper analyzes some legal and bioethical problems that are not solved by the legislation applicable to assisted reproduction, one of the most controversial fields of medicine and human biotechnology. It focuses especially on the area of new heterosexual and homosexual family models, as well as the case of couples with a pre-existing disease, the controversy regarding the selection of non-disease carrier embryos in the case of preimplantation genetic diagnosis, sex selection, mixed in vitro fertilization, and post mortem procreation, among others.

In short, attention is paid to the way in which regulation and ethical assessments have been carried out, with the purpose of reaching conclusions after knowing the arguments emitted by the doctrine and reflecting on the improbable aspects of our legislation, with concrete proposals for lege ferenda.

Palabras clave : Human reproduction; human biology; legislation; family; embryo.
