Women suffering from Uterine factor infertility are unable to reproduce hence artificial methods are used to accomplish this process.

According to research, one woman out of every 500 is affected by this uterine factor infertility.

The method used to alter this natural process is a uterine transplant. Through this method, a dozen women became able to give birth. Wombs are usually donated by blood relations and friends or by ones who are not is the desire of having children.

Here is something unique to tell you and that is, this cute little girl who is born in June. She is born from the womb of a deceased woman. Her mother suffered from uterine factor infertility and she received a transplant from a deceased woman.

This is a notable achievement and more women suffering from uterine infertility can get benefit from it.

Uma Perni, M.D., Cleveland Clinic’s maternal-fetal specialist said that this was a wonderful result and could not expect a better one. The child and mother are perfectly fine. This is ongoing research and we are looking for more options however, this field is developing promptly.

They transplanted uterus in 2017 and that mother became pregnant through in-vitro fertilization in late 2018.

This method got successful after three years as they are learning from their past mistakes. Prior to this Cleveland clinic tried this method on a patient named, Lindsey McFarland by transplanting the womb of a deceased donor. The womb transpired as the donor had suffered from a bacterial infection which is called Candida albicans. So, doctors had to remove the womb before they could conceive.

McFarland got overage and she cannot avail of this method but now her mother could be a surrogate for their fetus.
