Delay motherhood by 'removing ovary for storage'
Picture by SkiChick719
Women will soon be able to delay motherhood into their 40s and beyond by having one of their ovaries removed and stored, the doctor behind the world's first whole ovary transplant has said.
Dr Sherman Silber, performed the transplant between two twins last year and the recipient, who cannot be named, is due to give birth in London today.
