Seahorses and their close relatives,
In the entire animal kingdom, male seahorses (and their close relatives) are the only male animals that undergo pregnancy and give birth to offspring.
In all of the vast animal kingdom spanning the planet, seahorses (and their pipefish and sea dragon relatives) are the only species whose male members give birth to young.
Male pregnancy is an alien concept to us mammals. Yet this phenomenon is the universal reproductive mode of pipefishes, seahorses and sea dragons (family Syngnathidae, with more than 200 species).
Both biological and “trans” men are capable of becoming pregnant, according to Planned Parenthood's Director for Primary and Trans Care Dr.
And apparently humans giving birth to animals isn't as rare or physically impossible as you'd think. Most documented reports of such incidents began to emerge in the early 17th century.
There's no maximum age that stops a man from being able to have a baby. You can become a father long into your older years, but there are risks.
Currently, there is research and research on uterus transplantation in men, which, according to recent research, shows that inside men's stomachs there is enough space for a uterus transplant to lead to a chance of pregnancy. This uterus implant technology is a technology that has already been researched and completed.
In seahorses and pipefish, it is the male that gets pregnant and gives birth. Seahorse fathers incubate their developing embryos in a pouch located on their tail. The pouch is the equivalent of the uterus of female mammals. It contains a placenta, supporting the growth and development of baby seahorses.
Nonhuman animal male lactation
The phenomenon of male lactation occurs in some species, notably the Dayak fruit bat (Dyacopterus spadiceus), Lesser short-nosed fruit bat (Cynopterus brachyotis), and the Bismarck masked flying fox (Pteropus capistratus). Lactating males may assist in the nursing of their infants.
The platypus (Ornithorhynchus anatinus) has a puzzling array of features. Not only does it have that iconic duck bill, it lays eggs like a bird or reptile but feeds milk to its young like a mammal.
Many species of fish, like the kobudai, are known as “sequential hermaphrodites”: they can switch sex permanently at a specific point in their lives. The majority of “sequential hermaphrodites” are known as “protogynous” (Greek for “female first”): they switch from female to male.
In contrast, a close relative of jellyfish and corals called Hydractinia can produce germ cells nonstop throughout its life. That allows it to make eggs and sperm across its lifespan. These animals live in colonies and take on separate tasks.
So now you can understand, it is not actually possible to impregnate an animal with human sperm. Because the sperm of each species fertilizes the egg of its own species. Human and animal chromosomes are completely different, so humans can have children with humans only.
Pregnancy after hysterectomy is extremely rare, with the first case of ectopic pregnancy after hysterectomy reported by Wendler in 1895 [2,3,4]. To the best of our knowledge, there are only 72 cases of post-hysterectomy ectopic pregnancy reported in the world literature [3].
A hermaphrodite is an organism that has both male and female reproductive organs and can perform both the male and female parts of reproduction. In some hermaphrodites, the animal starts out as one sex and switches to the other sex later in its life.
While most mammals also require a break between pregnancies, either to support new young or during periods of seasonal lack of resources, the female swamp wallaby is the only one that can claim the reproductive feat of being permanently pregnant throughout its life.
Cichlids hold fertilized eggs in their mouth.
Cichlids are from the large fish family called Cichlidae, which includes tilapia and angelfish. When they reproduce, the male puts the fertilized eggs in his mouth, which is where they stay until hatching. This process is called mouthbrooding.
Most animals that procreate through parthenogenesis are small invertebrates such as bees, wasps, ants, and aphids, which can alternate between sexual and asexual reproduction. Parthenogenesis has been observed in more than 80 vertebrate species, about half of which are fish or lizards.
Uterus transplantation
Afterward, an in vitro fertilisation (IVF) procedure would be followed to insert the embryo into the male's transplanted womb. In 1931, Lili Elbe (identified male at birth) underwent a uterus transplant in an attempt to achieve pregnancy, but later died of complications following the procedure.
Persistent Müllerian duct syndrome is a disorder of sexual development that affects males. Males with this disorder have normal male reproductive organs , though they also have a uterus and fallopian tubes, which are female reproductive organs .
The structure that is most analogous to the uterus in women is the epididymis in men. The epididymis is an organ made up of a highly coiled tube that stores the sperm produced by the testes.
While there is no definite age at which male ejaculation ceases, it has been suggested that it may happen when a man reaches his late 40s or early 50s. It is important to note, however, that this is not a universal rule and some men may continue to ejaculate at a later age.
While a 92-year-old woman delivering a 60-year-old baby may sound like a bizarre plot twist from the movie “Benjamin Button,” it's true. Huang Yijun, 92, of southern China, recently delivered a child which she'd been carrying for well over half a century. The baby wasn't alive, however.
Charles, Duke of Orléans, was 14-years-old when he had his first child. As jarring as it seems to have a child before you've just barely hit puberty, it was customary in the 1400s to wed and conceive very young. The wife and mother of his child, Isabella of Valois, was 19-years-old and died in childbirth.
