Womb Transplants to Allow Transgender Women to Have Children

(This womb transplant for transgendered women)idea follows a year after a baby was born from a transplanted womb for the first time ever in the world. The procedure took place in Brazil where a woman received the womb from a deceased organ donor. Now, a year after the successful procedure, surgeon Christopher Inglefield suggested that such procedures could be done on a bigger scale. He also said he believes that transgender women deserve the chance to bear children. According to Inglefield, the procedure involving a uterus transplant done on transgender women would be “essentially identical” to the procedure done on non-transgender women.
