(Medically) Assisted Reproduction


Explanation:
I've been translating and proofreading papers in this area for four years, and "reproduction" is far more widely used than "procreation". However, the term normally used is simply "assisted reproduction" (54,400 hits wih Google, against 2,540 for "assisted procreation", 980 for "medically asssited procreation", and 683 for "medically assisted reproduction").
