Woman born with 'Two Vaginas' reveals how the condition affects her relationship

Condition explained: An anonymous woman with uterine didelphys and her boyfriend has answered questions on Reddit about just what its like to live with two vaginas, two cervixes and two uteri
 
A woman born with two uteri, two cervices, and two vaginas has taken to Reddit with her boyfriend to answer any question users may have about her condition. 
 
The anonymous woman, writing under the username nurseryRN, opened herself up to queries from the public in a thread that recently made its way to the front page. 
 
'I am a female who was born with a complete uterine didelphys. I am in my 20s. I found out I had two uteri, two cervices, and two vaginas when I was 16 years old,' she explained in the thread, originally posted in 2013. 'I've been told I can get pregnant in either uterus.'

 
In her Ask Me Anything thread, the woman discussed everything from pregnancy to hormones to having sex.
 
'Given that the two vaginas need to fit within the same amount of space, would child birth be more difficult for you?' asked one user, adding: 'Would you require a C-section for birth, or is it possible for you to do a natural birth without complications?'
 
'C-section,' she responded. 'My uteri are smaller than normal so I am at risk for miscarriage, intrauterine growth restriction (small babies), and premature babies.'
 
Another user inquired as to whether she could get pregnant in one uterus and later become pregnant in the other.
 
'Due to hormones, that isn't supposed to happen but I've read that it's happened before,' she explained. 'Apparently a woman had one in one uterus and twins in the other uterus.' 

She also revealed that she has one Fallopian tube per uterus so she still only menstruates once per month. 
 
As for how she deals with her monthly visitor, the woman revealed: 'My doc says I should use two tampons at one time but that's a bit ridiculous so I just use one.' 
 
She added: 'I can choose to get the septum removed but scar tissue may form. I would have to put a mold in my vagina twice a day for 15 minutes at a time and I would have to do that for 6 months.'
 
Of course, many of the questions involved the women's sex life and, in most cases, she was more than happy to oblige in answering their questions.  
 
'My sex life is good. It depends which vagina is penetrated. My vaginas are side by side and the left side hurts when penetrated because it is smaller,' she explained. 
 
'To my knowledge, due to the septum in my vagina, my g-spot is covered. Other than that, I imagine that it's not much different than anyone else's.
 
In a separate AMA on the site, the woman's boyfriend confirmed her description using the username twicethefunn.
 
Apparently she is not the only one, a youtube star previous revealed she was born with same  uterine didelphys . Read here:
