Reprodução humana assistida e o direito da pessoa gerada ao conhecimento de sua origem genética.

Abstract

With the advancement of science, many couples, or even single people, resort to assisted reproduction to fulfill the dream of having children, since it enables the pregnancy of women with difficulties to breed. It is a set of techniques that can help to conceive without having sexual intercourse, that is, it is possible that the conception is done in other ways, besides the natural, by artificial means. These procedures can also be performed in a homologous or heterologous manner. Thus, the present monograph is based on the study of the main aspects of assisted human reproduction, especially the heterologous assisted reproduction, which occurs when there is the donation by anonymous third of biological material or there is an embryo donation per couple anonymous. This technique brought great questions and reflections on the law. Thus, there is the possibility or not of breaking the anonymity of the donor of genetic material against the right of the child conceived by the technique of assisted reproduction to know its genetic origin.
