Watch: Baby thought to be first born from frozen pre-pubescent ovaries

24-year-old Moaza Al Matrooshi's fertility was restored using tissue from her own pre-pubescent ovaries. It is believed to be the first time that ovarian cells removed in childhood have led to a successful birth. Rob Smith is an embryologist and clinic director with CARE Fertility, who oversaw Moaza's IVF treatment.
