Episode 10: Interview with Madison who was Born without a Uterus
Manage episode 354495439 series 3444825
At age 13, when all the other girls were talking about starting to menstruate, Madison was wondering why she wasn't having the same experience. A visit to her doctor would reveal that she was born without a uterus, with a condition known as MRKH. Madison takes us through her initial devastation, feeling she was "robbed of her birthright to have children." She talks about the shame and embarrassment she felt, her low self-esteem, using food to comfort her (up to an unhealthy weight), and when she decided to start learning to love herself.
Madison, Patty and Cara also collectively share their experiences of being women without any children of their own.
