Misconduct in third-party assisted reproduction: an Ethics Committee opinion

Ethics Committee of the American Society for Reproductive Medicine. Electronic address: asrm@asrm.org et al. Fertil Steril. 2018 Nov.

Abstract

Professionals who discover misconduct or other undisclosed information that would be material to the participation of another party (such as a donor, gestational carrier, intended parent, or lawyer) in an assisted reproductive technology arrangement should encourage disclosure to that party. In some instances, it is ethically permissible for the physician either to disclose material information to the affected party or to decline to provide care. In all cases involving the legal status or rights of the parties, referral to legal professionals is advised. This document replaces the document of the same name, last published in 2014 (Fertil Steril 2014;101:38-42).
