Born without a womb - with Ally Hensley (mrkh, mental health, surrogacy, childfree‪)‬ Womb Room

    • Kids & Family

Ally was diagnosed at 16yo with MRKH. With firing ovaries - boobs, hips and a typical vulva, you would never know that internally her body had failed to form a womb, cervix and vaginal canal. While she spent 9 months pushing tubes into herself to create a vagina, she remained infertile. Ally shares with us the poignant, heartfelt and heartbreaking road this diagnosis led her down - from self destruction, sexual shame and surrogacy to international speaking on turning trauma into triumph. Her story is immensely powerful and incredibly inspiring. Her words tug at the human frailties inside all of us.
