Mother donates womb to daughter
A woman who underwent France’s first uterine transplant can now have children – out of the uterus in which she grew as a foetus

The 34-year-old had Rokitansky syndrome, affecting one in 4,500 women, and had no uterus.
She can now become pregnant after her mother, 57, donated her womb. Both are “doing well” after the operation in Suresnes, Hauts-de-Seine.
