Scientists make eggs from skin cells, making a step ahead in reproductive medicine

Scientists have successfully created immature human egg-like cells from skin-derived stem cells, a significant step in reproductive science. This breakthrough offers hope for infertility treatments, potentially eliminating the need for donor eggs and preserving fertility for cancer patients. While clinical application is years away, the research illuminates early egg development and its implications for genetic understanding.
