Transwomen will be able to have children in the near future, with leading fertility experts claiming that embryo transplants will make this possible. According to a report in Daily Mail , this is such a success that in the coming times, biological men will also get a chance to give birth to a child, which is still impossible. Although this experiment has already been done on women, all the infertile women around the world have become mothers through this operation.
The first case of womb transplant came to the fore in 2014 when experts in Sweden were successful in it. Since then, 100 womb transplants have taken place. However, for the first time there is talk of womb transplant for transwomen.
Have to make small changes
According to world-renowned experts in the field of transplantation, small changes have to be made in order to make pregnancy successful in men. Womb can be obtained from women who have died or want to donate their reproductive organs by removing them. This can happen even when a woman decides to become a man.
This will be the process
First, a transwoman is subjected to vaginoplasty, surgical remodeling of her penis into a vagina, and then the testicles are removed. After this, the womb of a dead woman is taken out along with the veins and transplanted into the transwoman and connected to the vagina. To reduce the difference in the width of the veins, some veins are cut out. After the procedure is completed, the doctor prescribes some medicines, so that the transplanted womb starts functioning fully.
Successful womb transplant claims in North America
Experts in North America have claimed successful womb transplant, experts claim that after womb transplant the woman has also given birth to a healthy child. The fertility and sterility team at the prestigious Cleveland Clinic in Ohio has argued that transgender women have the same rights to give birth as normal women. He has written about the possibility of surgery being performed on the biological male as well.
100 pregnancy transplants done so far
The first case of womb transplant came to the fore in 2014 when experts in Sweden were successful in it. Since then, 100 womb transplants have taken place. Dozens of women have also become pregnant successfully after pregnancy transplant with the combination of IVF. It is not yet routinely available in the UK, but experts hope the procedure will soon be possible in the UK.
… then injustice will be done to transwomen
In an article, Dr. Rebecca Flyck has said that it would be unjust for transwomen not to provide womb transplant facilities. She has said that “as we know about the history of inequality and discrimination for transgender women, they cannot be denied because of their gender identity and trans status. He has said that by implanting a womb in a trans woman, her mental suffering can be reduced to a great extent.
Removed testicles can be used in IVF
Womb transplant specialist Dr. Flyck said that the first uterus transplant in a transgender woman will happen in the next few years. This Dr. Flyck has not clarified how this will happen, but it is certain that its first procedure will be vaginoplasty, so that her body is also like a biological woman. He told that in this process, the testicles of transwomen which will be removed, their sperms can be used in IVF. This whole process can take more than 11 hours.
Some potential risks
There is also a risk of failure of the surgical connection between the body and the donated womb. That's why some medicines have to be taken after transplant. Dr. Flyck and team also considered how a transwoman would become pregnant and give birth to a child. According to the team, the only option would be IVF, as pregnancy would not involve the ovaries or fallopian tubes that store and transport eggs. Apart from this, trans women will also have to inject those hormones which the biological woman's body itself produces during pregnancy. In this system the child will be born through C section.
Already tried
In May last year, Indian surgeon Dr Narendra Kaushik said he plans to transplant an embryo into a transwoman, the first attempt to transplant an embryo into a biological male in 1931. Denise artist Lily Elbe had a womb transplant to have a baby with her fiancé. However, after three months, he died due to cardiac arrest due to infection. Although womb transplant is now being done successfully in America. In Ohio, even a child has been born from a transplanted womb.
