Ethical aspects of social freezing.

G Pennings1.   

Abstract

The term "social freezing" is used to degrade the reason for freezing eggs to the level of a wish instead of a need. The main problem is that the distinction between "social" and "medical" freezing is very difficult to make and many applications do not fit nicely into one of the categories. The rejection of these applications also suffers from a number of inconsistencies. Given the difficulties in separating the two models, it is proposed that all applications, regardless of the reason, should be evaluated with the same criteria: efficiency, safety and justice.
