This article investigates how trans people are received in assisted reproductive technology centres (ART) in France and, more broadly, how procreation among trans people is currently regarded and managed by French medicine. It will analyze how sperm and egg banks serve couples formed by trans people, before exploring more in depth how the issue of pre-transition gamete preservation is considered. It will endeavour to understand in particular how, in various medical contexts, transgender parents' attempts to conceive are specifically viewed as problematic even though they differ in no way from ordinary ART methods. In other words, what are the procedures and methods that make it a problem?

The article focuses on the doctor's character in Robert Wilson's and Heiner Müller's Video La Mort de Molière. My main argument is that all his appearances during the video are actually sophisticated and alienated citations of Molière's dramatic fool - Sganarelle, who dresses up as a doctor in many of Molière's comedies in order to make fun of the profession. This is one of the ironic devices Wilson uses in order to expose the impotence of medicine in helping the dying Molière. Stylistically, this intertextual relationship shows that Wilson's typical aesthetic and surrealistic worlds contain within themselves sets of cultural and intellectual associations, which lead to meaningful interpretations.
