Summary/Abstract: The method of assisted reproduction can be applied when the medical condition of the man or the woman prevents them from carrying out their reproductive functions in a natural way. In this case; the woman who gave birth to the child is considered to be the mother. A problem arises with the establishment of the identity of the father. The methods for еstablishing the identity; which can be applied; are different depending on the marital status of the partners – whether they are married or not. The law allows reproductive partnership between people who are not spouses.
