Abstract
- The article from Bloomberg.com explores the global market for human eggs, focusing on a young girl in India who sold her eggs to buy a smartphone. The girl, manipulated by an adult, underwent a risky and invasive procedure to extract her eggs, highlighting the exploitation and ethical concerns in the fertility industry. The story sheds light on the commodification of women's bodies and the lack of regulations in the industry, urging readers to consider the ethical implications of sourcing donated eggs sustainably. The article also discusses the cultural and financial factors that drive the demand for donor eggs in India and around the world. [Extracted from the article]
