Human eggs are sometimes donated and sometimes sold to help infertile couples make babies. Now, some scientists want human eggs to make embryos for stem cell research. Some people believe that women should be paid a fair wage for their eggs. Others argue against this. They worry about the possible coercion and exploitation of the women who would provide the eggs. Come and learn more about this thorny ethical issue.
