Young Woman Says She Discovered She Was Pregnant Even Though She Was a Virgin
When Nicole Moore found out she was pregnant, the young lady could not believe it because she was still a virgin. Perhaps she was going to be the next Virgin Mary? Read on to find out more.
Nicole Moore, from Portsmouth in England, was in her early teenage years when she realized something might be wrong because she could not insert a tampon.
She went to the hospital to complain, but doctors, after an examination, told her everything was fine. Still, she could not shake the feeling. At 18, she tried having sex with her boyfriend, who was older and more experienced, but the couple was unsuccessful in their attempts.
Moore could not understand why this was happening because, on every occasion, it felt like her boyfriend was hitting a brick wall. Afterward, she returned to the hospital to complain, and after she was examined again, the doctors told her everything was fine.
Since their attempts to have sex were unsuccessful, Moore and her boyfriend explored other intimate ways of having fun. Apart from not having sex the conventional way, everything else seemed fine until Moore noticed something strange happening to her body.
Moore Falls Pregnant
Moore was at work when she felt something odd. She recalled the feeling in these words: "One day at work I started getting terrible heartburn and sore breasts. My boss at the time, who was a close friend and knew about my situation, said she thought I could be pregnant."
Despite her efforts, she experienced disbelief from healthcare providers.
"I laughed and said there was no way, as I was still a virgin. I did a pregnancy test on my lunch break that day at work and it was positive." The then 20-year-old was confused and worried because if having sex was so difficult, how would she deliver a baby?
She was also worried her boyfriend would think she had cheated because everything looked impossible. Thankfully, he did not doubt her when he eventually heard.
Moore Gets Diagnosed with Vaginismus
Moore found it amusing that many people continued to refer to her as the "Virgin Mary." She recalled the challenges she faced when doctors doubted her claim of never having had sex. It was a struggle for her to make them believe her.
However, during her pregnancy, when she was four months along, Moore finally received a diagnosis of vaginismus, providing her with some much-needed clarity about her condition after a lifetime of confusion. During her pregnancy, she faced persistent challenges in convincing medical professionals about her situation.
She recalled instances where her boyfriend had to accompany her to appointments to confirm their lack of sexual activity. Despite her efforts, Moore experienced disbelief from healthcare providers. At one hospital check-up, a nurse couldn't perform an internal examination and dismissed Moore's claim of not having sex, insisting she was mistaken.
Moore felt frustrated, fearing she might never be believed or find answers. However, during a routine pregnancy-related doctor's appointment, she was seen by a student doctor who had recently studied vaginismus.
After sharing her challenges with the student doctor, he suggested that she might have this condition. When Moore researched the symptoms online, she was astonished by what she discovered. It was a turning point for her when she realized that she had a medical condition, and there was nothing inherently wrong with her.
Following her diagnosis, Moore was referred to a therapist specializing in vaginismus. Under the therapist's guidance, she learned techniques to overcome the condition. With this support, Moore achieved a significant milestone—she was able to lose her virginity when she was five months pregnant.
Moore's "Little Miracle"
However, Moore's patience didn't go unrewarded. Eventually, she successfully gave birth to her baby girl, Tilly, without any complications. Despite her initial fears about childbirth, Tilly brought immense happiness and love into her life, dispelling all doubts and worries.
Moore affectionately calls Tilly her "little miracle" and proudly embraces her role as a devoted mother to a daughter. She now wishes that her story can raise awareness about vaginismus, ensuring that other young women don't have to face the same misunderstandings she experienced.
