South African fertility clinics often include a provision in their consent forms that deals with the disposition of reproductive material (gametes and embryos) after a fertility patient's death. This practice is problematic as such a provision is not legally valid. ⋯ Instead, to address the practical concern of keeping reproductive material cryopreserved without receiving payment, fertility clinics' storage agreements should use non-payment by fertility patients (or their successors in title) as the trigger event for the disposition of reproductive material. The importance of dealing with reproductive material in both its property rights dimension and its personality rights dimension is highlighted.
