27 year old Joanna Giannouli, says she has rare condition that affects around one in 5,000 women. She says she has no womb, cervix and upper vagina. Speaking to Harry Low of BBC, Joanna said;
When we first saw the doctor, my father put on a brave face. My mother, on the other hand, didn't take it so well. She blamed herself for the past 10 years. It was really heartbreaking to see her like that. We didn't talk about it much for the first five years. I wasn't able to talk about it. I felt destroyed and incredibly weak.
