Fertility "experts" seem to think a uterus is just a "plug n play" organ that just needs wired in.
What about the cascade of ever changing hormones at the right time in a pregnancy to sustain the foetus?

Never going to happen.

Even if it WERE possible, what about the ethical considerations for the child?
Safety of potential foetuses?

If this actually ever happens I think it's time to start praying for the asteroid.

Contrast this shite with being a pregnant woman ordering a pint in a pub or trying to buy antihistamine at a pharmacy.

How is that ethically possible?

Presumably it would need testing on animals first... can see animal rights having a field day there

Then human trials... adults involved would be willing participants... but experimenting on a foetus no way.

Have there been successful uterus transplants between women?

That's a nice pair of Overton Windows this thread has.

This is what I cut and paste whenever this gruesome subject comes up:

This business of uterine "transplants" into men appears to be about science but it is not. It's about getting the idea out there that men can give birth too, but not just yet, there are a few technical details to be sorted out first. So while we're waiting for the inevitable, let's get on with the social sciences side of things and accept that since men can give birth too (not yet, but soon, soon, it's bound to happen), then there are no real differences between men and women in terms of things that are material and significant, they're just bodies with an interchangeable set of parts. The actual significant differences are surface ones like the chosen forms of appearance.

It is about trying to change how people think by assuming a medical horror is a run-of-the-mill thing just round the corner. It's Overton Window stuff, not science.

There was a time when doctors wanting to carry out live experiments on babies were pariahs. Now they find a home with ease.
