What I mean is that if the inability to become pregnant or father a child is down to a genetic malfunction, won’t that same or similar malfunction be passed on to the resultant baby? Then she or he will have the same sort of problem and so it goes on and on.
Don’t take this too harshly but if a woman is unable to conceive or a man unable to father a child, isn’t that nature’s way of saying, “hang on we have a defective person here and we don’t want to pass the defect on to further generations.”

There are many different ways, not only genetic, as to why people may be sterile.
A woman may become sterile after catching chlamydia, or as a result of an ectopic pregnancy.
Helping people like this to have the family they might crave surely isn't wrong.
After all without the advancements of medical science that we have now, a lot of you old ones would have passed over to the other side.
Or are you cheating nature, just as you suggest Mother Nature makes people sterile to avoid passing on defects to future generations?
