Reproductive Medicine and the field of assisted reproduction has never seemed more promising, yet more challenging. In the strife to give and get the best, the gush of advances in endoscopy, molecular biology, drug technology, and assisted reproduction techniques have resulted in the emergence of new concepts, taking clinical and laboratory practice to undaunted heights. Third party reproduction, promoted by cross-border reproductive tourism and the boon of new cryopreservation techniques, is celebrated now like never before, regardless of traditional societal obligations or the pressure of age or time, to satisfy the unanimous motive for a child.

The first global cooperation between Indian and French doctors was the Indo-French Congress on Gynecologic Endoscopy, Ultrasound and Infertility, organized by Rotunda- The Center for Human Reproduction, Mumbai, Maharashtra, India. The mystic city Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh, India played the perfect host to the exploration of the feminine mystique and medical possibilities. This was the first global cooperation between Indian and French doctors in the field and was a milestone in related academia on the Indian subcontinent. The idea of compiling a textbook with Indian and French authors, contributing their experience, was initiated by Dr Gautam N Allahbadia and Professor Rene Frydman. The authors also invited experts from other French-speaking countries to contribute chapters as well.
