A Comparative Study of Artificial Reproductive Rights in Iran and the United Kingdom

Artificial insemination as one of the new methods in medical science has caused major changes in childbearing methods. The present study seeks to investigate artificial reproductive rights in Iran and the United Kingdom.

The present study is a comparative study using documentary and library methods.

Ethical Considerations: 

The writing of the present article has been done based on the exact principles of citation and the use of valid and relevant Persian and Latin sources.

Acceptance of reproductive rights in jurisprudence and law is based on a jurisprudential attitude and most of the reasons for supporting it are adapting the changes of time to the evolution of the family institution, supporting population growth and trying to treat infertility problems. In Britain, liberal beliefs and welfare are the basis for all people, even children born of artificial insemination.

The UK legal system is a leading system in providing the highest benefits to a child born of fertility and custody, but taking on guardians by homosexuals, as well as commercializing artificial insemination, are disadvantages. In Iran, too, taking care of single people over the age of 30 can be a challenge for marriage.
