Reality TV star Kim Kardashian, who is keen to have a second baby, has been told by her doctor that she would have to undergo a hysterectomy once she delivers another child.

In a preview clip from an upcoming episode of her family show "Keeping Up With The Kardashians", Kim is seen calling her husband Kanye West with the news, reports mirror.co.uk.

The 34-year-old, while talking to the cameras revealed the latest development in her pregnancy struggle, after she visited a fertility doctor.

"I'm trying to get a hold of Kanye, because I just came from my fertility doctor and they need me to go into surgery to clear out something in my uterus," she told the cameras.

After leaving her sisters Kourtney and Khloe, Kim finds a quiet space where she recalls the conversation to her husband West on the phone.

"When you have your baby, this will be your last one, because the problem is your placenta grew on your uterus, so when you have another baby, your placenta will go right to that hole and then we'll have a team of doctors waiting right there, to remove your uterus and put you into emergency surgery right there because you can't bleed too much," Kim tells her husband.

Kim admitted that she was left in tears after hearing the news because it was "a little too much" after he revealed all the worst case scenarios.

"I was crying," she said.

The star, who welcomed her daughter North nearly two years ago, has been open about her desire to have more children despite insisting during her pregnancy that she would never want to fall pregnant again.

"Now there is nothing more on this earth than I want than to be pregnant again," Kim told the cameras.
