Aussie First: How A Mother Gifted Her Daughter Her Uterus

Two years ago Kirsty Bryant was excited to meet her first baby. But after a traumatic birth experience, she needed a hysterectomy to stop a haemorrhage and save her life. Left without a uterus, Kirsty had to grieve the future babies she had envisioned for her family, until she stumbled across a medical trial that is changing all that.  In this episode of The Quicky we speak to Kirsty - Australia's first ever uterus transplant patient and the doctor that made it all possible.  For more information on the Australia's first Uterine Transplant head here  Head here to donate to the Royal Hospital for Women Foundation  Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH Feedback?
