 In the buildings of the Gallifreyan Maternity Service, under the
logo of the crossed computers (as mentioned in ‘The Creature
from the Pit’).

Where were they incubated before this service existed?

 

Is Romana Dejah Thoris? In any case, how would an egg come
out of a man? The problem still remains. Allowing a pregnant Time Lady
to regenerate into a man is tantamount to murder of the unborn child,
and that includes eggs.

 I was specifically addressing your point that it was like allowing
abortion ‘at all stages of pregnancy.’
 Eggs are laid at the earliest possible stage of pregnancy, before
the foetus has developed. Once laid they’re outside the mother’s
body and she can regenerate all she likes without having any
effect on the baby whatsoever.

Unless she's still incubating an egg or since eggs are usually laid in clutches many eggs.

 Sorry if I didn’t make that clear enough before.
 

It's still abortion if she regenerates with an egg or many eggs inside her.

OTOH if you’re still mammal-centric enough to insist that Time
Ladies have placental pregnancies, then maybe the embryo isn’t

They have been seen with breasts, nipples, and belly buttons.

reabsorbed right away. While the newly-male mother is still
still within the first fifteen hours of their regeneration cycle, there’s
enough residual regeneration energy to allow another regeneration
back to female and continue the pregnancy as before.
 

If they regenerated from a woman into a man while pregnant then that means they can't control their regenerations so why would the be able to force themselves to regenerate again back into a woman? All the more reason why Time Lords can't change gender while regenerating.

(The regeneration cycle thing was established back in ‘The
Christmas Invasion’, so even you should accept it as canonical!)
 

Tennant only regenerated a hand, not a uterus and a vagina.
