CDU Women’s Wing Pushes for Legal Egg Donation in Germany

The women’s wing of the CDU plans to usher in a paradigm shift in reproductive medicine at the party’s conference in February. They are calling for the legalization of egg donation in Germany, but only under strict conditions. According to the “Süddeutsche Zeitung” the women’s organization stresses that there must be no commercial trade in eggs; donations should be purely altruistic, with no financial incentive. Nina Warken, chair of the women’s wing and health minister, explained that the goal is to aid women who cannot conceive due to medical reasons, but she emphasized that clear regulatory frameworks are essential.
