After the wonderful news last week of baby Amy born to the UK Uterus Transplant program we wanted to share some of the amazing advocacy that has been undertaken across the community.  There has been an overwhelming sense of emotion in the community triggered by the feelings that this news brings for both the hope and joy as much as the bittersweet feelings for whom this opportunity comes too late.

Grace, the first ever UK womb transplant recipient was born with MRKH and this amazing scientific feat, pioneered in Sweden, provides hope and inspiration for so many wishing to carry their own child but who cannot because of uterine factor infertility, of which MRKH is one cause.

Find out more across media outlets and congratulations to the amazing advocates from the MRKH community and beyond who have over the last week been across TV, radio and magazines sharing their thoughts on this and for everyone cheering on from the sidelines.
