A Swedish
pioneering research team recently announced that they transplanted wombs
to nine women. These nine women successfully received transplanted
wombs donated from their relatives. Their conditions were good, so they
are expected to become pregnant soon.
According to the
doctors, womb transplanting is a new kind of surgery, so at present, it
is just a trial. These women are expected to become pregnant and give
birth to their own babies, which, however, can not be guaranteed. Some
experts said that this trial provides another choice for those women
without wombs.
Dr. Mats Brannstrom is the chair of the
obstetrics and gynecology department at the University of Gothenburg and
he is leading the initiative. The aim of their projuect is to test
whether it is possible to transplant wombs into women so they can give
birth to their own children. The women were born without a uterus or had
it removed because of cervecal cancer, and most of them are in their
thirties.
Brannstrom said the nine womb recipients were doing
well. Many already had their periods six weeks after the transplants,
which is an early sign that the wombs are healthy and functioning. The
transplant operations did not connect the women's uteruses to their
fallopian tubes, so they are unable to get pregnant naturally. But all
who received a womb have their own ovaries and can make eggs.
Before
the operation, they had some eggs removed to create embryos through
in-vitro fertilization. The embryos were then frozen and doctors plan to
transfer them into the new wombs, allowing the women to carry their own
biological children.
For women, uterus is an
important organ, which plays an indispensable role in giving birth to
children. However, many a woman is suffering uterus diseases, thus
making the dream of having their own children a dream forever. The
uterus disease refers to lesions in various areas of uterine, such as
inflammation, trauma, tumor and precancerous lesions, which is one of
the most common diseases in women. Uterine diseases including
endometritis,
endometriosis,
uterine hypertrophy, polyp of the uterus, uterine fibroids, uterus
cyst, uterine prolapse, endometrial cancer, etc. The causes of uterine
diseases include uterine cavity operations, such as abortion, and
infection, etc. To relieve pain for women, the herbal medicine,
Fuyan Pill, is developed to cure many problems of female reproductive system.
Major hazards of uterine diseases are as follows:
1.
Affecting a woman's fertility. If uterine deformation can not get
timely and useful treatment, a woman's fertility can be seriously
affected; if patients with a uterus of a single horn, it will be
difficult to give birth to children, for the patients have only one
fallopian tube.
2. Constituting the uterus
mediastinum. Some women are suffering uterine deformation, most of which
are accompanied by the risk of uterine mediastinum. At the moment, the
chance is higher than other types to have uterine deformation.
3.
Leading to infertility. This disease is one of the main factors to form
the women infertility, especially along with the uterus of a single
horn. Whether natural pregnancy or assisted pregnancy is less
successful. If the shape of uterine cavity is abnormal, it can also
affect the baby's normal growth and development.
If women are unfortunately to have uterine diseases, it is not that terrible.
Fuyan pills can help to relieve pain for women and achieve their dream of having their own babies.
