Résumé anglais Abstract A feeling of obviousness, but also of malaise, is elicited by simply mentioning reproduction techniques. Analyzing the four key figures of the researcher, the doctor, the man and the woman on the basis of around a thousand medical files from the procreation assitance service of a hospital reveals how such feelings can be understood as the effect of factors such as medical power and gender domination as well as medicalization and calls to maternity. In oppositon to this structure of authority, turbulences emerge that destabilize established conceptions of parenthood and the approved limits placed on research or on procreative time-frames, and which lead to new types of questions in this field.
