According to doctors there is a fairly large demand for the transplant procedure in humans, mainly from patients who've had hysterectomies, after which they are not able to bear their own children. The doctor said that while adoption and surrogacy are still options for these women, some of them would prefer giving birth on their own, if they could. Doctors say uterine transplant as a way of salvaging a woman's fertility when every other option has been exhausted without results, and this would also become the only way for the rare woman who is born without a uterus to bear a child.
