i'm not sure why everyone is being so realistic about Lois not being able to have kids, there is a doctor that has genetically engineered women and has a serum that make women grow giant boobs and lactate so much they have to use industrial milking machines. I'm 90% sure that the doctor will come up with some serum so Lois can have kids.
The science fiction writer must be a kind of seer.
It is impossible to give birth without uterus.
But to find a way of its transplant is quite possible.
another thing - that when transplanting, the ovaries will be transplanted, that is, in fact, the children of Loyce will not be quite children Loyce, since the mother’s DNA is not the Loyce DNA in the egg. Loyce will actually be a surrogate mother for children born from the MC - this is such a subtle moment. Although it may be possible with the help of genetic engineering to the egg taken from the ovaries Lois will be able to introduce the Loice itself and then the children born of Loyce will be truly its full - fledged children.
On the other hand, with surrogate motherhood, a surrogate mother arises exactly the same connection with the unborn child as with her own.
So - not everything is so scary.
Although I heard there are 3D printers who know how to print organs. And even with cells from which the organ will be printed is also quite simple - you can grow them in a nutrient medium, before taking the future owner from the body. There is a technology to turn ordinary cells into stem cells that can be “taught” to be cells with any function.
And it will be quite realistic and not a fairy tale about the magical serum ..
What is quite possible to start a woman’s lactation, even if a woman did not give birth, is quite likely, because lactation is under the influence of hormones.
The question of how to make the level of hormones in the body is maintained without pregnancy, because these hormones seem to be distinguished by ovaries, it seems (if I'm not mistaken)
But maybe this task can be assigned to nanobots, which can be saturated with human blood, and nanobots will make the hormone desired for lactation.
