Pregnant Man - It Happened Before and That Man Died

A man in the US is pregnant, and is expecting his first child with his wife in July.

Thomas Beatie, who was born a woman, had a sex change to remove his breasts and underwent testosterone therapy, but kept his female reproductive system.

Beatie and his wife Nancy had always wanted children, but unfortunately Nancy was forced to have a hysterectomy 20 years ago, after suffering a severe case of endometriosis.

Beatie stopped taking his testosterone injections around eight years ago, when the couple made the decision for him to carry their child.

Beatie provided a statement to the Advocate expressing how it feels to be pregnant.

“Wanting to have a biological child is neither a male nor female desire, but a human desire,” he said.

“We are proud to announce that this pregnancy is free of complications and our baby girl has a clean bill of health. We are happily awaiting her birth, with an estimated due date of July 3, 2008.”

The couple has sparked concerns among the medical industry for both physical and ethical reasons.

Many doctors have refused to treat Beatie, with one even telling him to shave off his facial hair because he wasn’t comfortable with the situation.

“Health care professionals have refused to call me by a male pronoun or recognize Nancy as my wife. Receptionists have laughed at us,” Beatie told the Advocate.

This is Beatie’s second pregnancy, he had an ectopic pregnancy with triplets which required life-threatening surgical intervention, which led to the loss of all three embryos.
