Approximately 7 million women ages 15-44 in the US are are unable to either get pregnant or carry a baby to term (source: http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/fastats/infertility.htm).
Recent events have led to the discovery of the process for transplanting a uterus into a woman. Consider the McFarland case and address the following question:
1. What are the ethical or moral issues that should be considered in uteran transplants? If proven effective, should this procedure become a common practice for women or couples who have difficulty conceiving or carrying a baby to term?
You are required to post a 100 to 200 word response to the question. You must also post a 50 to 75 word response to one of your classmates’ postings.
