1. it is unlikely or completely excluded for a woman to become pregnant in a natural way or to have a viable foetus; and
2. other treatments for her infertility or infertility have not led to or with a high degree of probability lead to her pregnancy; or
(b) as regards the need for an early genetic examination of the human embryo where the health of the future child is at risk because of the demonstrable risk of transmission of genetically conditioned diseases or defects borne by that woman or man.
(2) Germ cells are ova and sperm for assisted reproduction purposes.
(3) Artificial insemination of a woman means:
(a) the introduction of sperm into the female sex organs; or

(5) Germ cells and human embryos can only be used for artificial insemination. This does not apply if human embryos are not used for artificial insemination that can be used for human stem embryonic cell research under the conditions and for the purposes laid down by the Act governing human stem embryonic cell research (3).
§ 4

(2) The use of assisted reproduction methods and procedures shall not be permitted for the purposes of the choice of the sex of the future child, except in cases where the use of assisted reproduction methods and procedures can be avoided by serious genetically modified diseases linked to sex.
§ 6
(1) Artificial insemination may be carried out on a woman of her childbearing age if her age does not exceed 49 years, at the written request of the woman and the man who intends to undergo this service together (hereinafter referred to as "infertile couple").

§ 9
(1) If not all human embryos produced for the benefit of the infertile pair have been used in the artificial insemination of the recipient, they may be stored and used for further artificial insemination of the recipient. This is not the case if the infertile couple declares in writing that they do not intend to use the embryos for their further artificial insemination and at the same time give their consent to be used for another anonymous infertile couple, or consent to the use of excess embryos for research under the Human Embryonic Stem Cell Research Act or their disposal. The declaration may be withdrawn at any time by the infertile couple; This does not apply if human embryos have been used in another infertile pair or disposed of in accordance with the declaration. A human embryo resulting from the recipient's ova or sperm of a man from an infertile pair may be used for the artificial insemination of another recipient, provided that the fitness of the infertile pair has been assessed to the extent specified for anonymous donors.
(2) If the human embryos have not been used or the infertile couple has not made a written declaration of destruction as referred to in paragraph 1, the provider may, after 10 years of storage, repeatedly demonstrate in writing that the infertile couple has made observations on the continued storage of those embryos, including the granting of consent to their destruction. If the infertile couple does not respond to a repeated proven written request from the provider, the human embryos may be disposed of without expressing the infertile couple.

Where an invitation with regard to a change in the address of the infertile couple is untouchable or refused to take over, the invitation shall be deemed to have been received on the date of its return to the provider. Similarly, if the call is not delivered to only one person from a barren pair, the procedure shall be followed.
(5) On the basis of the written declaration referred to in paragraph 1 or the written consent made following the invitation referred to in paragraph 2, the provider shall ensure the disposal of frozen human embryos in the presence of at least two health professionals. The health file kept on the recipient shall include a written declaration or written consent, or, where appropriate, a delivery or other document certifying that a written invitation to the infertile couple has been sent and a record of the destruction of human embryos; the entry shall be signed by the health professionals present at the disposal of the human embryos.
§ 10
(1) The provider who is authorised to carry out the methods and procedures of assisted reproduction shall ensure that the anonymity of the anonymous donor and the infertile couple and the anonymity of the anonymous donor and of the child born from assisted reproduction is maintained.

§ 11
The collection of germ cells shall not entitle the person who has been withdrawn to a financial or other remuneration. The supplier who has carried out the procurement shall, upon request, pay the anonymous donor effectively, economically and demonstrably the costs incurred in the donation of germ cells. Their replacement may require the recipient to be artificially inseminated or the provider to whom the germ cells or human embryos have been transmitted to perform assisted reproduction. The provider who has taken over the germ cells or human embryos to perform assisted reproduction and who has paid the expenditure referred to in the second sentence may claim compensation for such expenditure for the recipient to be artificially inseminated.
