It is not possible for a removed human rib that was transplanted into another body to later be replaced in the original body. No more than would it have been for Adam to have reclaimed the rib that God removed from him and from which God created Eve. Yet the quest by some men for their lost “feminine side” would make one think it was possible — despite the absurdity of the idea and the futility of the quest.
Adam did not ‘lose’ his “feminine side” — his Creator removed it and from it made a woman: the first of her kind. The closest Adam could have got to getting back his rib would have been to have kept Eve at his side. Not merely as an ‘offsider” but as a part of himself in the form of a new person. One with whom he could walk and talk and otherwise relate, and with whom a process of human reproduction could begin. An integral part of himself but in a different sex — one created by God from his own body
God had instructed Adam to “Be fruitful (productive) and replenish” (populate) the earth.” (Genesis 1:28; 9:1) Every other living thing around Adam would have been copulating and populating. Until God created Eve, he was single: a human alone in a world in which every other living thing was able to mate with a different sex of its own kind. Adam was well aware of them because he had named them.
God said: “It is not good for man to be alone…” Some choose to remain single. Monks, nuns and priests do so as a vocation. Jesus spoke of some men being born so and of others (eunuchs) being made so, and of still others as choosing to be so for the sake of the kingdom of God. (Matthew 19:12) A solitary life is not necessarily a lonely one. But the great majority of men and women choose to be married to a partner of the opposite sex.
Adam and Eve did not seek to be compatible — God had made Eve for Adam from a part of Adam. As Adam reflected: “This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh. She shall be called Woman (Hebrew: Isha) because she was taken out of Man (Hebrew: Ish.” (Genesis 2:23)
In verse 24, Adam sums up this first singular, then dual, and through sex unified result: “Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.” In short, if Adam wanted his rib back, he had to keep Eve at his side from then on. That was and still is God’s order of things.
The idea of a robotic android as a companion is weird to an extreme. Such androids now exist — though “exist” is hardly the word. The owner of the manufactured version of himself or herself may regard it as the ideal companion, but God made Adam an identity, not an entity. Remove “id” from “identity”, and all you have is “entity”.
So, don’t try to get your “rib” back in another — any other — form because the opposite sex is God-given! To those who are still set on doing so, all I can say is Bad luck with that.
