genetically? yes. but for all intents and purposes you’d be the mother. theres also the possibility in the future that if cellular editing gets advanced enough they could grow a genetically identical womb using stem cells and stuff but thats a while away
the genes dont matter to me personally. i just want to carry my child, be there for all their firsts. i dont want to miss my baby’s first breath. first word. i want to be the first one to hold them. no one else able to claim to be mom.
idk why it matters so much to me, but it does. im not fully against adopting really either, its just not the same and id hate to force a child to have an unpassing tranny parent. thatd be humiliating for them
Babies are made with sperm and eggs. The uterus just holds the baby. For IVF, doctors retrieve the recipient’s eggs, fertilize them, and transplant the resulting embryo into the woman’s womb.
what about the produced hormones? so you don’t start producing estrogen and progesterone and such and having periods by having the transplanted thingy?
yeah, you do start having periods and all that junk. That’s all under the ovaries jurisdiction though. All the uterus does is respond to hormones. Actually, getting a period is a sign that the surgery worked really well.
but like, if you have a baby with that, wouldn’t it be kind of a baby from another person that’s not you??

if you’re willing to see it that way might as well just adopt idk

there’s no eggs in the uterus dummy
what do you mean?? you mean it like it’s impossible to have a baby with transplanted uterus??
I’m genuinely ignorant in that domain

so you gotta keep injecting E and boofing prog?
OOHHH, my bad. I misread. Are you talking about cis woman or giving a tranny a womb?
if you mean tranny, yeah the circles would have to be artificially maintained as you would need to for a cis woman without working ovaries.
