- this has already been done in mice with successful births as of 2023
- iiuc there is no need for sperm cells so trannies who did not store sperm may be able to be genetic mothers
- creating eggs from genetic males is huge for trannies and cisgays but the breakthrough also includes creating eggs from non-gamete cells which has massive implications for cishet couples too, and will likely receive funding under an aggressively pro-birth pro-ivf administration (not a maga but still).
- probably expensive but still more cost-effective than uterine transplant (which would still require this kind of ivf)
- lots of companies offer special infertility insurance. i can see this kind of care being covered for trannies in blue states on the west coast.
- if you have a lot of money you could probably convince a doctor to try it on you today.
