title: [How far can we go to oocyte donation? Debates on the risks of late pregnancies].
abstract: In France, there is a decline in first-time motherhood influenced by many sociocultural factors thus leading to a reproductive age where fertility decreases and which increase the risks associated with late pregnancy. The oocyte donation in France is subject to The Bioethic law granting no support in infertility beyond past 43 years. Thus, to satisfy their need for maternity, the French use a gift abroad. Then we will report the case of a pregnancy obtained by an oocyte donation, after 42 years, which was complicated. We will discuss the importance of taking into account the risk factors before a support to ART, and the ethical issues raised by this case. After a brief review of French legislative framework governing the practice of oocyte donation, we will evoke ways to improve the coverage needs of it in France.
