Fair play, like.
A woman who went through the menopause at age 23 is now expecting twins after her sister donated her her eggs.
Australian born Amber Grace thought that she and partner Chris would never be able to have children due to her menopausal hormone level.
She became aware of this in 2015 after experiencing hot flushes.
Soon after, she also discovered that she had cysts on each of her ovaries.

IVF treatment did not appear to be working until Amber’s sister Taylor said that she would donate her own eggs to help the couple conceive.
The first transfer of eggs failed, but the second was a success and Amber discovered that she was, in fact, having twins.
The mum-to-be told House of White that she was shocked to see that she had become pregnant due to the treatment.
“I took the test expecting it to be negative but it was the strongest two lines I had ever seen! Well, only lines I had ever seen.”

Amber said that she hopes other women who are struggling to get pregnant will hear her story and know that they are not alone.
“I think so many women believe it’s only happening to them but unfortunately it affects so many of us,” she said.
She also encouraged women to speak to other people about the fertility problems they are experiencing.
She joined a Facebook group herself and found it incredibly helpful.
“These women have become my best friends and understand everything thing you are going through.
“No question is right or wrong and you feel so safe. It is a long and hard road definitely not easy but worth it!”
