After declaring that she was going to try for more children despite the health risks, Kim Kardashian West has learned that she will never be able to get pregnant again.
On the latest episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians, the star decided to go ahead with surgery to repair her uterus so she could carry a third child.
โHaving more kids is definitely going to be a struggle,โ the mum-of-two explained. โIโve gone through so much with really bad deliveries that the doctors donโt feel like itโs safe for me to conceive again myself. This surgery is really the one last thing I can try. I want my kids to have siblings and I want to know that I did everything I could to make this happen.โ
Following the surgery, Kardashian West suffered complications with her bladder that meant she needed a catheter inserted.
Unfortunately, the surgery was not successful, and the reality star was given bad news.
โNot only has this been really painful, but now hearing that I canโt carry any more kids, it couldnโt get any worse,โ she said. โI mean, f**k, like I really tried everything and I really want this and itโs just not going to happen for me.โ
After coming to terms with the fact that she canโt carry another child, the star has started looking into other options.
โKanye and I are just going to look into other options and see what weโre comfortable with,โ she said.
Older sister Kourtney Kardashian then brought up the option of a surrogate. โIโm definitely leaning more toward I want to try,โ Kardashian West replied. โAfter talking to Kanye, I think that I always knew that surrogacy was an option, but I didnโt think it was that realistic of an option. Now, I feel like thatโs my reality.โ
She then decided that surrogacy is the only option for her if she wants another sibling for daughter North and son Saint.
