A shocking story has emerged on social media involving a Nigerian woman who discovered she no longer has a womb, a year after visiting the hospital with her boyfriend for a dilation and curettage (D&C) procedure.

The revelation was shared by another woman online, who detailed the events leading up to the discovery. According to her account, she learned from a patient that a woman recently found out she was missing her womb.

This unfortunate woman and her boyfriend had initially gone to the hospital for a D&C procedure. During the operation, complications arose. Allegedly, while the woman was unconscious, her boyfriend signed off on the removal of her womb, as doctors claimed it was necessary to save her life.

Post-operation, things seemed normal at first. The woman experienced her period the following month, though it was heavier than usual. However, after a few months, she stopped menstruating altogether. Around the same time, her boyfriend began to distance himself, eventually leading to the end of their relationship.

Worried about her sudden lack of periods, the woman returned to the hospital to investigate the issue. It was then that she discovered her womb had been removed during the earlier procedure. Tragically, her boyfriend had since passed away, leaving her without any way to hold someone accountable for the life-altering decision made without her consent.

This distressing incident has sparked outrage and concern on social media, as many empathize with the woman’s plight and the severe violation of her bodily autonomy.
