For infertility clinics around the world, donor sperm and eggs have become a lifeline for patients who struggle to conceive a child. Yet, this is not an adequate solution for all couples. For patients who are fortunate enough to produce multiple viable embryos and subsequently conceive, the remaining embryos may procedurally be discarded. With increasing prevalence of infertility, this study aims to determine critical moral and ethical questions regarding distribution of unneeded embryos. Theories of justice circumvent issues of private property by allowing for unrestricted individual choice. However, it may be possible that reality may not be so simple, and the public/private, choice dichotomy is likely a gradient.  This study determines key biological aspects that control the level of choice, responsibility, and moral obligation involved in biological materials, and specifically what this implies for an idea such as potentially embryo distribution.
