Abstract:
Assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs) have revolutionized
infertility treatment, offering hope to millions of couples
worldwide. From in vitro fertilization (IVF) to newer methods
such as intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) and
preimplantation genetic testing (PGT), ARTs have significantly
improved success rates and accessibility for diverse patient
groups. However, the rapid evolution of these technologies
brings with it numerous ethical, legal, and social dilemmas. This
article explores the development and applications of ARTs,
current trends in the field, and the challenges of balancing
technological innovation with ethical considerations. Through a
comprehensive analysis, we highlight how ARTs continue to
reshape reproductive medicine, while raising questions about
equitable access, embryo selection, and long-term societal
implications.
