Male pregnancy could be a reality

"Every woman who has used the "well, we have to go through childbirth" line to win an argument with a man may soon be set to eat her words.

Because according to leading doctors, male pregnancy could become a reality in just five years' time.

That's right, men and transgender women could theoretically receive a uterus, carry a baby to term, and give birth in the next decade thanks to recent medical advancements in reproductive transplant surgery.

"My guess is five, 10 years away, maybe sooner," Dr Karine Chung, director of the fertility preservation program at the University of Southern California's Keck School of Medicine, told Yahoo Health.


While the surgery is "still considered highly experimental" according to Cleveland Clinic doctor Tommaso Falcone, a Swedish research team from the University of Gothenberg has performed nine uterus transplants to date, achieving five pregnancies and four live births.

"The exciting work from the investigators in Sweden demonstrated that uterine transplantation can result in the successful delivery of healthy infants," says Cleveland Clinic lead investigator Andreas Tzakis.

While the surgery is still both tricky and dangerous, the benefits may outweigh the risks for many women and, going forward, men or transgender women.

"I'd bet just about every transgender person who is female will want to do it, if it were covered by insurance," Dr Christine McGinn, a US plastic surgeon who performs transgender surgeries on men and women, told Yahoo."

This is amazing for trans women! I don't really understand the point for men, but nobody is forced to give birth here, OK?
