Accidentally discovered child weighing 3.8 kg
25-year-old Rebecca Oldham suffered unbearable abdominal pain for several months, and when she did go to the clinic, the doctors stunned her with treatment - it was necessary to remove her ovaries. During the operation, surgeons found a 36-week-old fetus in the uterus. Ultrasound did not show pregnancy due to the incorrect position of the fetus. This day was the happiest for the girl, as she believed that she would never get pregnant again.
Not quite a man
A 44-year-old man from China came to a local hospital complaining of regular abdominal pain and blood when urinating. As a result of the examination, the doctors found out that his penis was deformed and menstruation began. Further investigations revealed the patient's female reproductive organs, including the uterus. It turned out that the Chinese man was suffering from a rare genetic disease that reduced stress hormones and increased male sex hormones, which made him look like a man.
Phantom pregnancy
A girl from North Carolina went to the medical center saying that she was due to go into labor that day. A delay of 2 days forced the doctors to study in detail the medical data of the pregnant woman and, under the guidance of the head physician, perform a caesarean section. Incredibly, during the operation, the uterus was empty. The woman had an imaginary or hysterical pregnancy, caused by a great desire to become a mother. Therefore, she had all the signs of a normal pregnancy.
