Every country has different regulations regarding treatments that are allowed to be carried out. There are certain countries that have strong legal and ethical guidelines that shape these regulations and there are other countries that have a loose structure that allows for relaxed regulatory laws. For example, there are certain stem cell therapies that are regulated by the FDA in the United States. Middle Eastern countries forbid any form of abortion or for patients to receive organs from unrelated donors. In India, fetal sex determination is considered illegal, even though many other countries permit it. Also, certain regions prohibit private infertility treatments.
