- After an examination, the doctor was shocked when she found out that the woman was still a virgin.
- It turns out that the couple had been having anal sex all along, resulting to the failure to get pregnant.
A married couple was feeling frustrated because after four years of trying so hard to have a baby, they just couldn’t conceive one.
The unnamed husband and wife, aged 26 and 24, asked obstetrician Liu Hongmei earlier this year when a team of medics visited their village in Bijie City in China’s south-western Guizhou Province.
“The couple were very young, the man 26 and the woman 24. They were very healthy, but, despite being married for four years, couldn’t conceive. Their family was giving them a lot of stress because of it,” the doctor said.
When Liu asked about the wife’s medical history during the village visit, she was told that the couple had sex regularly. But instead of feeling pleasure, the wife revealed that the experience was “unusually painful” for her every single time. She just endured it all in hopes of becoming pregnant.
The woman’s symptoms initially led Liu to believe that she may have had a type of gynecological disease.
But after an examination, the doctor was shocked when she found out that the woman was still a virgin. This led her to inspect the woman’s anus, which she claimed: “could fit three fingers.”
It was then revealed that the couple had been clueless about sex and had been mistakenly doing anal for four years, resulting in their failure to conceive.
Liu then handed the couple sex-ed handbooks and gave them guidelines before they were sent home.
And it worked! The wife became pregnant a few months after.
They reportedly informed the now-retired doctor that they were finally expecting by sending 100 eggs and a live hen as gifts to her former hospital.
“Four years of marriage and neither the husband nor wife knew how to get pregnant. Couples so lacking in general knowledge are very rare. But it is not uncommon for people to lack or has misconceptions regarding sexual knowledge,” Liu said.
