Pregnant Despite Uterus Didelphys

Filed in archive Pregnancy on January 6, 2009

Uterus didelphys is a condition wherein a woman has a double uterus and consequently a pair of cervices. Most often double vagina too.

With this condition pregnancy may be difficult as conception will depend on whether the sperm reaches the right uterus containing the woman's egg.

In London, a woman has been told she has two uterus and two cervices after finding out the she is pregnant.

Lindsay Hasaj had no idea she had two wombs and two cervixes until doctors made the unexpected diagnosis five weeks after she found out she was having a baby.

Mrs Hasaj has one entrance to her vagina, which divides into two internally.

She explained the discovery followed tests at Barnet General Hospital after she complained of a pain in her abdomen and feared she was having an ectopic pregnancy.

"I was in a cold sweat," she recalled. "I thought they were going to say I'd had a phantom pregnancy or something. Ten minutes later, they came back and I was told very matter-of-factly that they could see two wombs and two cervixes."


This condition is one in a million in the world. Also, a caesarian section delivery is imminent.
