Sociological examination of fertility biotechnologies in maternal issues

Motherhood experience is not unified in infertile women and it can be divided to three types of social motherhood, biological motherhood and genetic motherhood. In each of infertility treatments, the unified dimensions of this experience are flawed. This study examines the help of fertility biotechnologies in maternal issue. Thus treatments in which the third person enters to the treatment process, have more complex social dimensions than treatments without the need for the third person. In this study, "fertility biotechnologies as the pain experience" was examined, and "donation intermediary" and "reasons and motivations of donation and its social consequences" were extended and analyzed. The study concludes that in the treatment of infertility whether with feminine or masculine origins, not only the main burden of physical side effects is for women, but also, the social burden of biotechnologies in treatment is affected women. So, what is considered as the motherhood phenomenon is also viewed in infertility treatments. However, due to the men's greater control over the economic resources of the family, in many cases, the final decision on starting or continuing the treatment process through fertility biotechnologies, is made by men.
