2
What is Vaginal Agenesis?
  • Vaginal agenesis is a rare disorder that happens
    when the vagina does not develop, and the womb
    (uterus) might only develop partially or not at
    all. This condition is present before birth, and
    might also be related to kidney, heart, or
    skeletal abnormalities.
  • The condition is also called Mullerian aplasia or
    Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser (MRKH) syndrome.
    Surgical and nonsurgical treatments are
    available.
  • After treatment, you might be able to have a
    normal sex life. Women with a missing or
    partially missing uterus cannot get pregnant. If
    you have healthy ovaries, however, it might be
    possible to have a baby through in vitro
    fertilization using a gestational carrier.

Symptoms Causes Of Vaginal Agenesis
  • Symptoms
  • Signs and symptoms of vaginal agenesis usually go
    unnoticed until girls reach their teens, but do
    not menstruate (amenorrhea). Some women
    experience monthly cramping or abdominal pain.
  • When should you see a doctor?
  • If you have not had a menstrual period by age
    fifteen, see your doctor.
  • Causes
  • It is not clear what causes vaginal agenesis.
    Scientists think that at some point during the
    first twenty weeks of pregnancy, tubes known as
    the Mullerian ducts do not develop properly.
    Generally, one of these ducts develops into the
    uterus and vagina, and the other grows into
    fallopian tubes.

Complications Diagnosis Of Vaginal Agenesis
  • Complications
  • Prior to treatment, vaginal agenesis might impact
    your sexual relationships.
  • After the treatment, you should have a normal,
    satisfying sex life. However, if your uterus is
    also affected, you would not be able to become
    pregnant on your own.
  • Diagnosis
  • Depending upon your age, your pediatrician or
    gynecologist will diagnose your condition based
    on your medical history and a physical
    examination. Vaginal agenesis diagnosis could
    occur at different times in your life, for
    example
  • As a baby, if your parents or doctor find out
    that you have no vaginal or anal opening
  • As a young girl, during an examination for a
    suspected kidney issue
