    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.

            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.

                yea we’re on a tranny website, I assumed that would be assumed…

                thanks for explaining tho, that sounds like something I really don’t want even if it was already a thing

                  oh yeah, it would likely be absolutely agonizing, absurdly expensive and difficult also. I’m hoping to dedicate my career to making the inevitability of real SRS not so shitty.

                however, unfortunately. transplanted wombs even now aren’t currently permanent. This will change. It’s in theory totally possible right now. The issues are more like financial and ethical and what not.
