MRKH Support

A Fixers campaign led by Frances Denne: www.fixers.org.....
A woman who dreamt of having a baby her whole life has told Fixers of the heartache she felt when she realised she had a rare medical condition that meant she would never carry a child.
Frances Denne has Mayer-Rokitansky-Kϋster- Hauser (MRKH) syndrome and does not have a womb, cervix or uterus.
The 24-year-old has helped to produce this film to show other people in her shoes that they're not alone.

I'm 16 and I've just been diagnosed with MRKH. It's been hard to accept this part of myself, but I'm so glad that there are other women and girls out there who share my condition.

Thank you for this video! Such bravery to open up about this..I was diagnosed at 17 and its such an unknown condition & hard going through it alone not knowing much about it..

[@nicolajones1695]

I have Mrkh and live in the uk i have never spoken to anyone with the condition I was told I couldn’t have children that was it until I was 24 and I found out myself. I have felt so alone.

[@Morning_Morningstar]

I'm currently seventeen, and I was diagnosed with MRKH in November of last year. I'm still struggling to accept myself with having this.

[@lacleymurrow4968]

Brave women you are, ladies with MRKH!! On the other hand, there are thousands of those lucky others who've never faced a thing near MRKH, have perfect reproductive health, BUT they don't want to have kids!! I've recently come across a lady's comment after a video on MRKH. She told sth like, ''do not tell much about surrogacy, IVF and other procedures! I've been through IVF myslef, my LO is 7 yrs old now. But this is the 24/7 responsibility and taking care of I wasn't ready
for..So I don't feel happy anymore..'' This was like a stab into my heart!! And here a kind & lovely woman who's gone through therapies and loads of meds and scans and needles and pains.. to get
the chance..

I'm 18 and last october I've been diagnosed with MRKH, but there are no support groups where I live in Canada and I have no one to talk to. It's so hard, I always knew there was something wrong with me, I wanted to take some test when I was only 15 and my biggest fear in life was not to be able to have kids. The idea of having my own family was what got me through depression and many hard moments, but now I feel like I have nothing left to hold on to. My friends and family don't fully understand how painfull it is or how close I realy am to sink back into depression and to give up.
