Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
If a woman is infected with HTLV, she can have a baby from other's womb by surrogacy. The chances of transmission of infection to the baby will be minimal in this way. The collected eggs can be washed also.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you. You can consult me again directly through my profile URL http://bit.ly/Dr-Rakhi-Tayal
