Preimplantation genetic diagnosis: Marine Tondelier's use rekindles debate on medically assisted procreation
On November 2, 2026, Marine Tondelier revealed that she had undergone a procedure banned in France, preimplantation genetic diagnosis, as part of an unsuccessful medically assisted procreation journey. The following day, a fertility plan report recommended expanding access to medically assisted procreation, while the press explained the test and the government launched a fertility information campaign. Marine Tondelier subsequently expressed support for a bill seeking to legalize preimplantation genetic diagnosis, and the Health Minister declared herself in favor of this legalization on November 4. MP Constance de Pélichy defends her bill, a lawyer testifies to having used the test abroad, and articles more broadly highlight difficulties accessing medically assisted procreation and a shortage of donors.
