Abstract

The article focuses on several conceptual issues linked to proposals to use artificial womb technologies (AWT) as an alternative to healthy pregnancies. Topics discussed include the risks of AWT and the technical unfeasibility of ectogestation, use of AWT for healthy pregnancies to increase female productivity and thus enhance female competitiveness on the job market and women's rights.
