Hello,
Welcome to ehealthforum,
A partial hysterectomy involves removal of the uterus and leaving behind of cervix in place. It is not possible to carry on pregnancy without presence of uterus. If you are having functional ovaries, you can opt for surrogacy (womb on rent). You and your partner can be the biological parents of the child. Visit your gynecologist/infertility specialist for further evaluation and assistance. All the best.
Take care.
