Journal Title: International Journal of Allied Medical Sciences and Clinical Research - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
Womb transplant is simply known as transplantation of womb to women who cannot carry out a pregnancy on their own due to disease condition or absence of the womb, after the womb transplantation gestation period is normal as healthy women. The child born is genetically similar to women who underwent womb transplantation. For embryo production in womb transplant drugs are given to the recipient for stimulation of eggs. Firstly, for production of embryo recipient own egg and partner’s sperm are frozen. Womb with two main arteries and veins are removed successfully from donor and implanted to recipient in a surgery. Women are given immune suppressants before 12 months of womb transplantation and then go through surgery. Womb can be donated by brain dead or alive donor. After successful pregnancy womb can be removed or can be given a second chance of pregnancy as per wish, mostly it should be removed as prolong use of immune suppressants can lead to diseases like cancer
