HUMAN REPRODUCTION, PROFESSIONAL ROLE, Fertility, MidwiferyAbstract
The great technological advances in assisted reproduction, although accompanied by great bioethical dilemmas, have facilitated the understanding of an area as complex as human fertility and reproduction; becoming a branch of Sexual and Reproductive Health (SRH) in constant development and growth; where midwifery has an opportunity to participate and respond to the demands of these users, since worldwide there are more and more couples who face difficulties in reproduction, as well as a greater number of users who wish to postpone their motherhood, with fertility preservation needs for medical reasons, or diverse families requiring fertility services.
In this context, this article is a reflection on the different scenarios where midwifery could act, as front-line professionals in the care of sexual and reproductive health problems, to address the needs and problems associated with reproduction; likewise, it is a call from the academy for the transformation of the curricula of the Schools of MIdwifery, to establish the interesting professional role that midwives can play within this field.
