As the number of infertile couples is growing in Russia, the use of assisted reproductive technologies (In vitro fertilization, surrogacy, etc.) have been widely developed. Thus, there is the urgent need of proper legal regulation and measures to protect the rights of both surrogate mothers and genetic parents from diff erent abuses, including those of criminal nature. The legislation governing relations in this area needs further development. There are a review of foreign laws concerned, and the analysis of different positions on human reproductive rights in this article. An attempt has been made to determine the list of crimes against human reproductive rights. The necessity of advocacy in the sphere of assisted reproductive technologies is reasoned as a measure of protection of human reproductive rights.
