Uterine myomas are also known as uterine fibroids. These fibroids grow from the smooth muscle layer of the uterus. This smooth muscle wall is known as the myometrium. The fibroids are most commonly benign (non-cancerous) tumors that are typically found during a woman's child-bearing years.

Is it possible to have a uterus transplant?
I have heard that there was the first uterus implant done in another country, and subsequently heard that they were studying implanting uteri in the U.S. The U.S. has not perfected a method of a permanent uterus implant, however. The method they are studying now includes anti-rejection drugs so that the woman the uterus is implanted to can have the uterus implant until after she gives birth, then it is removed. I am hopeful that they will continue this study, but I have heard that many people find a uterus implantation ethically "wrong", fearing that men will ask for this implant.
What is the life cycle of the nurse shark?
After the egg is fertilized the developing young are encased in egg cases in the 2 uteri(plural of uterus) of the female shark. They hatch from the cases when they are around 55mm long. They are still in the uteri at this time and will feed off the unfertilized eggs and their own siblings for around 9 to 12 months. There is only 1 shark left in each uterus as all of the others have been eaten so 2 sharks are then born(there are 2 uteri). Their life span has only been worked out in captivity which is 25 years approx. This number will obviously be affected in the wild however nurse sharks rarely get eaten by other animals. The only time humans have been a threat to the nurse shark was when the street lamps in Sydney ran off the oil in and surrounding the livers of sharks. I haven't found out what age a female nurse shark can be fertilized at but i will edit it in if i do. I hope this helps if you haven't yet found the answer yourself. Callum
