ABSTRACT
Reproductive technologies have rapidly evolved, offering new opportunities for individuals and couples facing fertility challenges. In India, the growth of Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ART), including In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) and surrogacy has brought about significant societal and legal implications. This article explores the emerging trends in reproductive technologies within the context of India’s evolving regulatory framework. It examines the legal, ethical, and social dimensions of these technologies, with a focus on the Surrogacy (Regulation) Act, 2021, and the Assisted Reproductive Technology (Regulation) Act, 2021. The study delves into the balance between technological advancements and the need for effective legal safeguards to protect the rights of all stakeholders, including parents, children, and surrogate mothers. The article concludes by highlighting the need for a more comprehensive and adaptive regulatory system that aligns with international standards, ensuring equitable access while safeguarding human rights and ethical principles.
