Different Questions Regarding IVF
Question
Hello, I am a high school student in Australia studying Judaism and their different beliefs about certain beginning and end of life technologies. For my essay, i have chosen the ethical debates surrounding the use of IVF. I was wondering what perspectives the different branches (reform, conservative, and/or orthodox Jews) believe regarding the following dilemmas:
the status of the embryo, especially regarding the surplus embryos that don't get used for the pregnancy
the emotional pressures of the mother, especially for multiple rounds of IVF
and the financial cost and access, regarding who has access, and the pressures of the finances on the mother.
any help will be greatly appreciated!
I look forward to hearing back from you,
Ruby
