I've had my eye on the UTx op for the better part of the decade. It is my understanding that there's no medical reason to expect it would not be successful in a trans woman. I don't have recent numbers but we passed >100 uterine transplants a while back. The most complicated physical requirement is a functional vagina for discharge (which is generally on the roadmap for trans women interested in carrying a child). I am unaware of trans women having received this operation yet, but Lili Elbe died after the first uterine transplant nearly 100 years ago, before the Nazi regime destroyed trans medicine and eradicated contemporary trans existence. Given the global climate, I don't expect any trans recipients to be eager for publicity. It will happen, and soon. |
