Ashley Reilly, from Western Australia , said she was at the end of primary school when many of her friends started menstruating and going through puberty.

After telling the doctor that she’d never had a menstrual cycle or developed breasts, she was sent for an ultrasound.It resulted in her being diagnosed with MRKH syndrome, which is a condition that causes the vagina and uterus to be underdeveloped or absent — despite external genitalia appearing normal.

Ashley said a specialist told her that what happened to her was “rare”, saying most people couldn’t “grow” a uterus simply by being on oestrogen. Reilly told news.com.au. “For me, it just never happened. I didn’t speak up about it, because I wasn’t really sure if it was normal or if I was a late bloomer.”“There’s some kind of hope, but at the same time, I don’t really want to get my hopes up,” Ashley said.
