Can a Man Get Pregnant Naturally?
In typical human biology, cisgender men cannot become pregnant because they do not have a uterus or ovaries. Pregnancy requires a fertilized egg to implant in a uterine lining, which male anatomy does not provide.
Can Transgender Men or People Assigned Female at Birth Get Pregnant?
Transgender men and others assigned female at birth can become pregnant if they have a functioning uterus and ovaries. Even after hormone therapy or surgery, pregnancy is possible if reproductive organs remain intact.
What About Male Pregnancy in Medical or Experimental Contexts?
Uterine transplants and ectopic pregnancy research are being studied in medicine, but no established procedure allows a cisgender man to carry a pregnancy. Current science does not support male pregnancy outside of female anatomy.
