Jurisprudential Investigation of Commercialization of Egg Donation

In order to solve the problem of infertility, many treatment methods are used today, including egg donation. Modern fertility methods, however, have many jurisprudential, legal, and ethical aspects that have always been the subject of debate. In this paper, an attempt is made to jurisprudentially investigate the purchase and sale, and more precisely, commercialization of egg donation.Ethical Considerations: In this paper, the originality of the texts, honesty, and trustworthiness are observed.

Findings of the research indicate that based on the inference from the point of view of jurists, there is a disagreement in jurisprudence regarding the purchase and sale of eggs. The conflict with the principle of human dignity, the lack of ownership relationship between the individual and the egg, and the lack of customary ownership are some of the reasons for opposing the purchase and sale of eggs. Rules such as the principle of man's sovereignty over himself, removing distress and constriction in the lives of some couples, the necessity of doing good deeds, and the presumption of innocence can also be cited as reasons for agreement.
