You're welcome, Erin! That's great that she still has her ovaries! I would still highly suggest that your friend should go see a genetic counselor. They provide much-needed information and options about giving birth. For example, the genetic counselors can give your friend information on whether or not her children could inherit the disorder. If her children's chances of inheriting her disorder are high (like mine is 50%), I would suggest artificial insemination. Through artificial insemination, doctors can pick out a healthy egg that does not contain the mutation (if her disorder is considered a genetic mutation), inject the egg with her husband's sperm cell, and then plant the egg in the surrogate mother. Of course, this is what I've been told because of my own situation. Again, I would go see a genetic counselor. They are very beneficial!
Also, according to the website that I provided, it says that if she has her fallopian tubes, she does not need a surrogate mother. She can save her money!

Unfortunately, if she does not have them, she might want to consider a surrogate mother.
