IVF, Pregnancy, Fertility, Baby Dreams…

A recent controversy in California focused on the question of whether physicians opposed to same-sex relationships should be required to perform IVF for a lesbian couple. Guadalupe T. Benitez, a medical assistant from San Diego, sued doctors Christine Brody and Douglas Fenton of the North Coast Women’s Care Medical Group after Brody told her that she had “religious-based objections to treating homosexuals to help them conceive children by artificial insemination,” and Fenton refused to authorise a refill of her prescription for the fertility drug Clomid on the same grounds. The case, North Coast Women’s Care Medical Group v. Superior Court, was decided in favor of Benitez on August 19, 2008.
