About

Why?

1 in 5000 women in the UK is born without a womb and hysterectomy is still a common treatment for cervical cancer in women of all ages.

Womb transplantation will give these women the opportunity to have children. We are working towards a future where these women and others who require a womb transplant can realistically access the procedure and go on to have healthy babies.

Aims

We aim to develop a practical, safe operation to enable women born without a womb, or who have lost their womb, to have a child.

We aim to raise awareness amongst the whole population about infertility that is currently largely untreatable and to raise funds to continue developing an accessible procedure of womb transplantation. Read more about the goals of our charity.

Ethical Considerations

We’ve been acutely aware of the ethical considerations of our work since the very beginning of our research.

Womb transplantation is by no means the only example of non-life saving transplantation procedures and therefore comes with the same ethical concerns as others of the same nature. Read more about the ethical considerations of our research.

Who is Eligible?

Any woman between 18 and 36 who suffers Absolute Uterine Factor Infertility could be eligible for a womb transplant in the future.

When womb transplantation becomes a safe and practical procedure, it could benefit thousands of women. Find out more about what would make a potential patient eligible for the womb transplantation procedure aside from age and infertility.
