Arthur Urach, son of Andressa Urach, defends girlfriend criticized for rare uterine malformation
Arthur Urach, Andressa Urach’s son, used social media this Wednesday, July 15, to defend his girlfriend, Maya, 20, after she was the target of offensive and invasive comments. The repercussions arose after Maya revealed that she had a rare congenital condition called uterus didelphys, raising questions about the couple’s intimacy.
Maya’s revelation about the congenital condition
Young Maya, 20, recently discovered, during a routine gynecological exam, that she has a didelphys uterus. This condition is characterized by the formation of two completely separate uteruses, and in some cases, it may be accompanied by two cervixes and even a division in the vaginal canal. When describing her own condition publicly, Maya used the expression “two vaginas”, which aroused intense curiosity and, unfortunately, a series of attacking messages on social media.
Arthur Urach speaks out in defense of his girlfriend
Faced with the wave of comments, Arthur Urach, also 20 years old, spoke out on video, highlighting that the doubts about Maya’s diagnosis went beyond the limit, affecting the image and private life of the two. He reported that he receives numerous questions about his relationship and his girlfriend’s anatomy, with many internet users treating the condition as something completely abnormal. “I, as Maya’s boyfriend, receive many questions and messages about our relationship, treating her anatomy as something totally abnormal, although this has never interfered with our activity. Quite the opposite”, declared Arthur, highlighting that the condition has never been a problem for the couple.
Uterus didelphys: the rare condition and its possible impacts
Uterus didelphys is a congenital Müllerian anomaly, meaning it is a malformation that occurs during fetal development. It results from failure of complete fusion of the Müllerian ducts, which are the embryonic structures that give rise to the uterus, fallopian tubes and upper part of the vagina. Although it is a rare condition, most women with a didelphys uterus live normal lives and often only discover the condition during routine exams or when investigating reproductive problems. Its possible impacts include:
- Fertility:Pregnancy is possible in both uteruses, but there may be an increased risk of miscarriage or premature birth.
- Pregnancy:It is common for pregnancy to occur in one uterus while the other remains inactive, but simultaneous pregnancy is rare.
- Asymptomatic:In many cases, the condition has no symptoms and does not interfere with the quality of sexual or reproductive life.
Maya’s positioning in the face of curiosity and attacks
Despite the repercussion, Maya said she understands the public’s curiosity, as the topic is rarely discussed. However, she made a point of highlighting that many other women live with the same anatomical change, some spending years without even discovering the diagnosis. The young woman reinforced the importance of demystifying the subject and promoting understanding, declaring: “Of course, this doesn’t make me less or more than other women, just different.” Her speech seeks to normalize the condition and encourage other women not to feel isolated or judged.
