A WOMAN from North Carolina got the surprise of her life after discovering she had two vaginas while giving birth. Brittany, 26, was born with a condition called Uterine Didelphys, which means she has two vaginas, two cervixes and two uteruses. It wasn’t something Brittany, nor her husband Greg, had noticed until she was in labour with their first child, Zachary. Brittany told Truly: "Some of the signs and symptoms I had were painful periods. They were really irregular, and I’d get them twice a month." Despite going for regular check-ups throughout her pregnancy, doctors and nurses only discovered the septum, which separated her reproductive organs, while in the delivery room. Brittany added: "It was traumatic for me to know that I’d made it that far in life, with that many people looking inside of me, and not noticing that condition." A few years after her shocking diagnosis, Brittany went viral on TikTok after posting a video describing the moment she learned of her condition, which gained over three million views. Brittany told Truly: "I had just never fully shared my story. I didn’t expect to go viral, but I like to help people learn about it and women in general." Now Brittany is hoping to have surgery to remove part of the septum which was left after giving birth to her second son, Avery. She added: "Although my birth was hard, I’m so thankful I found out. I realise how strong I was, as a woman, and the things that I could go through."
