[For an ethics of medical-assisted reproduction]. / Per un'etica della procreazione medico-assistita.

ABSTRACT

The principal problems to the bioethic of reproduction are exposed. A distinction must be done between the therapy of sterility and the processes for artificial reproduction. The first treatments do not need special rules, being under the laws regarding the medical profession. The second on the contrary need a legal regulation by the Parliament in order to avoid the manipulation of human life at its origin. More attention to values and less emphasis to technical problems is now required.
