Why men in the UK are going to get pregnant soon

In the case of the cases, dozens of women can currently freeze egg cells to use them as a later man again.

As the British online magazine further writes, more than 50 women who want to undergo a sex change currently have eggs frozen at the "Gender Identity Clinic" in London. Conversely, more than 100 men would have sperm freeze in order to also be able to reproduce later. The idea of ​​"Male Mums" is not new, as early as 2008, the first "Pregnant Man" had attracted attention. The American Thomas Beatie has to this day born three children and stands as "the first married man to give birth to a child" in the Guinness Book of Records.



State supports sex changes

In the UK, the state supports the male mum procedure. As a result, up to € 39,000 will be paid in taxpayers' money to support the patient in the process of gender reassignment. Clear that even the first critics have come on the plan to define "more meaningful" spending options. For the time being, however, in England, there could soon be a number of men who are pregnant.
