this girl has the Same Exact Thing as me. I don't have a period. I never have. I don't have a uterus. I don't even have ovaries, at least she has that. so I'm unable to have children. that's sad. it sux BIG TIME!
Nishtha Sagar Wow. Do you know how insensitive you sound? You could have written that comment separately. NOT in response to someone who can't have children.
I'm sure she doesn't feel that way. I got my period at 17 and I was terrified out of my mind. As a woman, she'll never get to experience the miracle of giving birth. Considering that my period is never consistent and I only get one day or two days when I'm lucky, it's not luck, it's kinda sad. I still can't relate to most of my friends when it comes to womanhood
Giving birth isn't a miracle it sucks rocks. It's messy, painful, not cheap plus there's always the chance of dying. No one tells you about the killer cramps as your uterus shrinks, hemorrhoids from all the pushing, your first bowel movement afterwards is a total winner then you get the runs, bleeding like a bad period and your whole body feels like you've gone a few rounds with Mike Tyson. Then your milk comes in. O.O Holy crap! Miracle, shmiracle. Relate about womanhood? You're female and therefore womanhood. Absolutely nothing to "relate to".
Gah damn! You're kinda mad about this huh? My mom never seizes to tell me about how she had me at home alone. She had 7 of us and according to her having children was the best blessings that she's ever gotten in life! No I have never had kids myself so I can't speak from experience but I am looking forward to growing a human inside me. 😊
Tiffany Nelson Dr. Weiss said that she did do the right thing 3:21, she went to the doctor but unfortunately they didn't do the right test to correctly diagnose her.
Tiffany Nelson the doctor said that she did go to a doctor. Her condition is just rare enough that a lot of doctors haven’t heard much, if anything at all about it.
It's really sad that she can't carry her own kids. I'm not ready to have kids myself yet but I'd be very upset too to find this out. I'd still be relieved and grateful to know that I can at least have my own biological children even if I'd need a surrogate. I'm sure she is too even if it'll be hard to miss out on her own pregnancies. Hope she is able to find peace with her difficult situation and that her future children are healthy and grow to know how amazing their mom is!
She can through ivf. She just wouldn't carry the baby. The baby would be formed with her own ovary and her partners sperm. The baby would have her DNA. It would just get the nutrients from the surrogate.
Monika Das I was going to say, what she has is a rarity but the fact that she has ovaries is a miracle, because she can still produce eggs. IVF is a great option if you find the right places and people.
Stop saying she's lucky she has a medical condition for god's sake this probably costs her loads of money and as painful as it is to have a period it's a part of womanhood that she might feel left out on
Yep she is lucky when she doesn't have period so, HEH. I don't mind your comments like "OMG stop saying that" and "shut up this is not funny" so I don't mind HEH! BAKA.
Right? That was very insensitive for him to say that to her, that she doesnt have to worry about throwing up for 9 months, someone else will do that for her. What a doctor, that was so so not okay to say. I dont have children, but I could only imagine her feelings about this, as a woman having to see another woman being pregnant with her and her partners child. That must be devastating even though it genetically and legally will be her child. So even if there is other ways to have babies besides natural, it will never fullfill the feeling of carrying her own baby inside her.. I wish her the very best, what a brave beautifull woman!
I’m turning 15 soon and I haven’t got my period yet. My sister who is 2 years younger than me got hers Edit: I got my first period Two and a half weeks ago. I’m grateful.
@@user-sj5pc6pg5e I didn’t get mine until 5 months before my 16th birthday. At that time I was always told not to be concerned until I was 16 with no period.
Valerie Smith I'm 16 and was recently diagnosed with MRKH which is the reason I don't have a period, I am 1 in 5000. You should ask your doctor for an MRI
i got mine at 12. (10 years ago) my mum had hers at 17, younger sister at 16. not sure about my 2 older sisters, but i think they were more around the same age as me. but i remember my childhood friend getting hers at 9. and a friend of my younger sister got hers at 8. it's one of those things you want because everyone around you is getting it, but when you do get it, you wish you'd never wanted it.
Larkspur I've never wanted mine, not ever. I'd heard about them, but it sounded dreadful, and I don't have friends (only one, she's my cousin) and I'm not a very... Social person. So I never knew that people were actually WANTING or LOOKING FORWARD to them. All I know is that they are a hassle, very annoying, very awkward, and I hate them. Random little rant. Sorry for taking up your time.
Larkspur I was around 9 when mine first started. At first I THOUGHT I wanted it to happen. But now I’ve killed Adam and Eve in mind 12 times a year for the last 26 years.
I got mine before i even learned what it was. I hated it and lied about having it until I really needed pads and I was throwing up everywhere when I first got it. I remember sitting in like 4th or 5th grade watching a puberty video and I'm sitting in a pool of blood.
I have the same condition as Katrela and it's really heartbreaking because I love kids. Up till now some people think my nieces are my daughters because of the way we behave when we are together. I still cry often but what can I do? Nothing. To all the sisters out there, you are not alone.💞
hey! just curious have you not tried taking maybe hormonal pills to externally stimulate your brain to remind your body to give you periods ? because, i go through the exact same and i havent ever bled naturally in my 22 yrs. it's pills that help me bleed.
Ms. Rae it's relatively easy to suppress a period. There is even a type of birth control pill that is designed to induce periods only 4x per year. Some iud's stop or reduce periods. I'm sure she doesn't feel completely lucky to not have a choice about her medical condition.
I know Cc I am not an uneducated woman. REMEMBER there are more views in the world than just yours and ALL of them can be spoken and voiced not JUST YOURS..
Lucky cause she doesn't have to deal with the monthly pain, but sad because she has to depend on someone else to help her bring her own child into the world.
Sarah Sediqqi yes but anyone else in the house will not appreciate the constant gagging. I know this from when my mom had my little brother. *shutters*
Sorry if sounds rude, it's not my intention What's so great of having a biological children? would you say it's diferent from adopt one? why? I ask my mom but she had a lot of childrens and is sick of them i don't trust her respond for that, you seems someone who didn't had one i am asking for that.
I have Mullerian Agenesis as well. It is very difficult to deal with. I have known since I was 15 years old... So going on for 11 years now. She's a strong woman... She will do so many great things with her life. And hopefully one of them will be becoming a mother one day.
Melody Mahon I have the Same Exact Thing. I don't have a period. never have. I don't have a uterus or ovaries. so I'm unable to have children. sad. it sux BIG TIME!
Lynda Harris a part of me still wants children. But I don't feel that it is necessary anymore. My husband doesn't feel the need for children at this time either so I definitely don't feel depressed or pressured about it as much as I did when I was younger.
Hi Katrella, you're 1 in 5000 people that have this which makes it really rare. I was born with the same thing and have never met anyone else in my life with it (only online). Even the gynaes I went to was shocked and said so many ridiculous things to me. I found out at 17 and had my mri. I didn't recieve the news in a good or professional manner with the doctor, she was really insensitive and didn't help me to understand it anyway. But anyways, I want to tell you that this really is such a big blessing for me and you. You can adopt. Give children a home that they never had. And when you fo? you will teach the world to have more concern for the abandoned and orphaned children. We live in a world where we are so consumed and concerned about only ourselves and what We want and yet, how many unhappy people are there still around us? Be that light in the world and make adoption a norm. If its not our responsibility to give these kids a home, then whose is it? After the abandonment or death of parents.. should they be left to grow up institutionalized and unloved, unnurtured, scared in this big and crazy world? Please consider adopting. And to anyone reading this, if you can afford to, please adopt children and give them a home even if you already have kids. It's not easy, but every moment of it is worth it.
Dunia Bhy me and my family are in a foster care system, and are looking to adopt! Though, our family is a bit old (youngest person is me, 13$) so idk if we will or not. ;( BUT if we will, I'll be super happy
1:57 really touched me, “There are options, talk us through those.” I know he’s doing his job but you can almost see the concern on his face. He genuinely cares about what this woman s going through
As a woman who suffer terrible with period pain, and hasn’t found a solution in many years and doesn’t want to have children… I would gladly give up my uterus. If there was such a a thing as a uterus exchange program. I’d be top of the list. So don’t feel terribly bad about it. For some, it’s a dream 😕
I feel bad... I don't want children at all and I have a normal period. I take my normal bodily function for granted. I'd trade parts with her if I could so she could have the ability that I'll never use.
Even tho I hate my period and would do anything to get rid of it and also do not want kids for the moment I would still find it heartbreaking that I don't have a uterus...
I dislike that the doctor said she “will not have to suffer through 9 months of sickness”. 🤦🏽♀️ Not everyone has that kind of pregnancy and not everyone finds even the sickness in pregnancy or other experiences to be “suffering”. 🙄
I hope she will be ok I hope that she just keeps her head up! And of all people she is one of them that should be able to have kids and be a parent I feel so bad for her.
Aww. She seems so sweet. I pray that she is able to go through the process of having a biological child even though she may not be able to carry him/her herself. If anyone deserves to be a mother it's someone who really wants to be one, and has a lot of love to shower on a child. She seems like she would be a very nurturing and caring mother. I wonder if she has ever shared this information with another doctor. It's strange that another doctor who was privy to this information could have examined her before , and never diagnosed her. I don't know how she interpreted the doctor's closing comment, but I interpreted it to mean if she wants to try to go through procedures of having a baby, they are willing to help her...hopefully monetarily. Them them help you, sis!
What a sweet,sweet girl!!! My heart goes out to her! Wishing her the very best,and she will ,one day,be an amazing mother!!!!! It will happen honey!!😘😘😘You have options!! 👍
this is a bit different but when i was 13 i had an ovarian cyst and and no doctor realised until one night i was screaming and crying in pain and then they took me to the operating theatre the next day to see the chat rupturred. they took out my appendix as well but it is just frustrating when you've been to so many scans and they say nothing is wrong
Kayla J i didn't know at all. I mean everyday for a week the symtoms were getting worse like one day i would loose my appetite, next day feel dizzy, next day i wont be able to stand straight and by the end of the week everything was just too much so i went to the hospital. It was after i woke up from the operation that they said they found the cyst ruptured but i guess a sign could be extremely painful period pains that you have to go hospital because its so bad
opeyemi destiny I have PCOS and hormonal imbalance and I lost my mens. cycle when I was 12(I got it when I was 11 and now I am 16). All the doctors said it was allright and one give me some random pills without even checking my hormones. Luckly, I found the doctor who helps me. But I needed to go to another country just to find her... I hope to get my menstruation soon.
Usually mothers pry on their girls asking if they had their period yet and vice versa. Her older sister/mother is the first person she tells. I agree if a girl hasn't had her period by 16, let alone by the time she is in her 20's., then it's time to go to the doctor.
@@eveningdim7167 If you don't have a period b4 16 then something is wrong. They recommend you going to the doctor at late 15 if you haven't gotten it yet
I have the same problem I’m 21 and I don’t have periods. Also I got checked by a doctor and they gave me estrogen tabs and pill that help stimulate my uterus and I have periods but I haven’t taken the pills for 2 years.
I have 3 children, and I absolutely cannot imagine not being able to have had them myself, in my body. I am so sorry, and my heart pours out for this woman
I don't get why people are so pressed about having kids there's so much more you can do without kids than with, way more money saved, less stress, I wish I could have this.
Because you continue your family tree and it's just apart of society and nature. I'm a black gay guy and I know this. I'm most likely not going to have any children of my own because god made me homosexual, but if I were straight, I would probably love to have kids and continue my bloodline. With the Shananay avatar, I figured you would be more optimistic than that.
i feel so bad for her, but its sweet that the show offered to help her if she does go the IVF route. i hope she is able to have a child that way if she decides to.
Lucky, if I were her and wanted kids even though I haven't had my period I would adopt because I don't want to throw up and go threw that pain. I had my period when I was 11. I act normal when I have my period and I rarely get cramps. I love dark chocolate so when I do get cramps I ask my mom to buy me dark chocolate so it can calm down :3
I really like how the host nicely concluded that she would make a wonderful mother and the show is there to support her in in the future she decides she wants to try for IVF and surrogacy. I am also someone like her that cannot get pregnant naturally due to another medical condition. I am not even sure if I am ovulating mature egg cells that would be sufficient enough for pregnancy, even if I know I have ovaries and I have been told that I have follicles. Even before that, I am unsure if I have any egg cells at all. Would I have and my periods naturally if I wasn't diagnosed early in my life? I have no clue. With treatments, my first period was at 13 yrs old, which means I was a late bloomer. I have had my periods for over a decade and a little, but I'm not sure if i can find a way if there is any chance of me getting pregnant including options like IVF. I feel very sad at times that even if I find a man that I dearly love and want to have a family with our own children, that probably will not happen. I might need an egg donor if I am not ovulating because I have no ovum. I try to remind myself that femininity is more than just the ability to look beautiful and have children. I try to take it positively that it can save me huge amount of money and pain knowing that there are LOTS of couples out there who almost go bankrupt trying have children of their own. I guess there is both pros and cons for not being able to have children, and if my resources and time allows, I can possibly adopt a child in need for a good loving home ^^ I never say never and I try to stay positive. Motherhood and fatherhood is a relationship, not only blood, right?
I really wanted to cry when she said I wanna cry.... I am sorry but don't you ever give up on someone you want no matter what you are going to be a wonderful mother hope you find the right woman to help you to be a mother and also a right partner who is there for you and support you
i got my period on my 14th birthday... was a 35 day cycle for years, now im 18 and ive had my period twice this yr im thankful, but it may be a struggle when i want kids later and theres nothing medically wrong with my system but even when i was regular i barely had any pain. slight nipple sensitivity for a week before i got it. stopped the day i get it and i get very minor back ache and stomach cramps where all i need is a heating pad for a couple hours when it just gets uncomfortable. it doesn't even hurt, its just uncomfortable pains (like if you're constipated or have really bad gas pain) and those pains only last the first day and then im done for pain i feel so lucky not to have bad regular periods
Emily N yeah i know it's not fun AT ALL but i'd rather have it and know what days i will have it so i won't be paranoid every time i wear white or am somewhere wear i won't be able to deal with it
Can someone tell me the overexertion with having to have a kid that looks like them. I have TS and I plan to adopt. Any good parents will be just as loving to an adopted child as a biological one so what is about kids looking like the parents? I guess I sort of get it if you have no siblings or cousins to continue on the family bloodline but even then that sounds like your family should have had more kids and its not your responsibility to fix that. Idk, just my opinion.
Rickki J. To continue your bloodline? To see what genes you pass down? Its something naturally fascinating. And why wouldn't you want your own child? You may love your bought child but you'll love your bio child more. I don't want some random kid. I want to see the product of my and my husband and when you have the kid, you look at them and you're just like, "We made that". Does the thought of being no more (your last name) of your bloodline not haunt you?
I have a Mullerian tube defect. It manifested differently than this woman's. I had one ovary, one fallopian tube ("blocked"--no dye would pass, a unicornuate uterus without a rudimentary horn, a vaginal defect, and two kidneys (but I suspect one is defective). My "baby" is 22.
Im 14 and still haven't got any period but i already have all of the period signs. All of my friends already have it. Im always scared if I'm not normal like other people. And i always sits alone, thinking about it. But then i watch this video, it makes me more sad & scared . I always say to myself, be positive. But I can't. I don't know what to do '(
I haven't had my period im 21 yrs old I'm afraid to tell my doctor cause I lied for 3yrs saying I've had my period I know I shouldn't of but I felt like I wasn't normal! I still haven't told her cause I don't know what the consequences are
How sad :( I might have to rely on a surrogate as well. My periods rarely show up and they can't figure out what's wrong with me. They've done blood work, MRIs and ultrasounds.
