Moaza Al Matrooshi, 24, went into menopause after chemotherapy but had her fertility restored using thawed tissue
A woman has given birth to a healthy baby boy after doctors restored her fertility with ovarian tissue she had had frozen as a child.
Moaza Al Matrooshi, a 24-year-old from Dubai, had one of her ovaries frozen as a nine-year-old and is thought to be the youngest to have had the tissue stored for future use in a pregnancy.
