Also, it WAS a T-girl that got the implant and got pregnant. I clearly remember wondering the day I read it, if they'd have to do a C-section since the male skeletal pelvis was not made to pass a baby through it. Sorry I can't post the actual article. I seriously doubt I still have a copy.
If others have had this done, that's great, as long as it works.
Seeing as how they've been very successful in growing a human ear on the back of a mouse, I have to wonder if rejection is an issue anymore.
Yeah... The five years thing... AFAIK there was never ANY successful uterine transplant 5 years ago, let alone full reproductive organs.
The first SUCCESS was only a couple years ago:

I can't find a link about the pregnancy atm, that wasn't even half a year ago at most.
There was a big race around the time the Turks did it, and there were a few other attempts around the same time, but still, the Turkish one remains the only success.
