Another amazing story out of India: a man’s stomach complaints turn out to be a uterus & ovaries. Imagine going into a hospital as a man with abdominal pains and winding up having a hysterectomy.
“The external reproductive organs of the patient were masculine and he has no problems whatsoever with his sexuality. He had functional male genitals and there was no formation of breasts in the patient. It’s an embryological accident at the time of embryonic formation,” he said.
The patient, who was said to be as “stunned” as his doctors at the discovery, is recovering in hospital and is being supported by his family.
It’s an interesting thought, isn’t it? I had a doctor tell me once about a patient who had terrible acid reflux, and it turned out his stomach was backwards, so that the shallow end of it was at the end of the esophagus.
