Uterus transplantation (UTx) is the first available treatment for absolute uterine factor infertility (AUFI), which is caused by absence of a uterus or presence of a non-functional uterus. Women with AUFI may in a limited number of countries achieve genetic motherhood by gestational surrogate carrier arrangements, and after adoption from the birth-giving mother, also obtain legal motherhood.

Thus, gestational surrogacy is not an available option for most women with AUFI.
