Abstract

[Interest in Assisting Reproduction looks at how high complexity reproductive technologies were made accessible to the medical community interested in fertility issues. This chapter covers the period during which the first clinics appeared, the first successful births took place, and in which the association again changed its name to reflect the ongoing changes in its epistemic infrastructure. What once was esterilología—a field concerned with caring for sterility as defined by the medical profession—then became biology of human reproduction—which focused mostly on managing hormonal levels to either prevent or promote conception—and now was (and still is) reproductive medicine.]
