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.
