Tk Kennedy, 20, a nurse from Dorset in the UK has always wanted to be mother but was diagnosed of a rare condition, Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser (MRKH) syndrome. This condition is characterized with the inability or failure of the Uterus and Vagina to develop properly.

For Kennedy, she was diagnosed with the condition when she was 17, when doctors found out she was missing a womb, cervix and part of her vagina.

Now, in an attempt to have sex, she will have to undergo painful treatment involving dilating her vaginal canal for 20 minutes twice a day, for a minimum of three months.

“My vaginal canal is not properly developed, so it’s very very little, so I’m unable to have comfortable sex without treatment or surgery,“ she said.

Her treatment will include the use of “dilators and start with a very very tiny one no bigger than the size of your pinky and stretch to make your vagina canal bigger so that when it comes to sex it’s comfortable and you’re stretched big enough to be able to have sex without it being painful,” she added.
