A man whose identity is still concealed is shocked after scans shows that although he has the male sex organ, he also has a womb, ovaries, cervix and fallopian tubes without knowing for 37 years of his life. Doctors are trying to remove it but are afraid it may cause him to enter menopause.
Daily mail reports that:
Man, 37, experienced dull ache after sex and found blood in his urine. Doctors sent him for MRI scan fearing he might have bladder cancer but images showed he had a womb, including ovaries and cervix. Pain was actually PMT, and blood occurred while he was on his period. Surgeons will now remove womb, but say it could start the menopause.
A businessman fearing he had cancer after discovering blood in his urine has been left stunned after doctors discovered he has a fully functioning womb - and the blood was from his period.
The 37-year-old man said he has experienced strange symptoms for years, such as a dull ache after sex, but his concerns were always brushed aside by medics.
Specialists have since discovered that, as well has having typical exterior male genitalia, he also has an interior uterus, cervix, fallopian tubes and ovaries.
They say he has been having periods since his teens, has experienced PMT, and may even be able to get pregnant.
The man, from Lancashire, is now preparing for surgery to remove the womb having lived his whole life as a 'red blooded' male, according to The Sun website.
Doctors say this is the best way to treat the condition, but have warned him that he could start the menopause once the operation is complete.
