Help

I wish to become a mother of my own child, unfortunately I don't have uterus and ovaries. Could you please help to create eggs from my skin stem cell?

You need a doctor for that

Advi, this is crazy talk. Nobody can do what you ask. If you want to have a child and you have no uterus or ovaries, the only way is to get donor eggs/ embryos and a gestational carrier or a surrogate, or to adopt. It isn't possible for your own genetic material to be used to create an egg. If you had a sister or a female relative, they could donate eggs if they were agreeable to helping you, and then the bub would share some of your genetic material. But in any case, I'm sure you wouldn't love a bub any less because they weren't genetically related to you?

That is rubbish. Some scientists have been creating embryonic or totipotent cells from skin and other tissues, that is NOT an embryo.
If that tissue was used to create a new human being, it would create a clone of you as it has all the same genetic material that you have. Cloned animals are pretty difficult to create and they do not do well- remember dolly the sheep? There is no fertility clinic in the world that is able to do what you want, and even if they could, they wouldn't want to, because it is pretty repugnant as well as ethically and legally dubious.
You do have a chance of pregnancy if you are serious, with donor eggs or embryos and a surrogate or gestational carrier, but it would probably be pretty expensive.

if you don't have a uterus or ovaries your not going to have a egg magically appear.   the closest thing you would be able to get is a donor egg from a family member but you won't be able carry the baby without a uterus.  You would have to use a surrogate.  

Just because a baby didn't come out of your body,  doesn't make it any less of your own child.

You should go to a doctor/specialist and see what options are available to you.

Good luck! :)
