Every once in a while I learn something new while writing for this website. The resulting onslaught of Wikipedia articles and scholarly journals I’m required to read in order to talk about it makes me feel better about myself and gives me something to bring up at my next dinner party.
This time, during a lull in the conversation I can clear my throat and announce to the table, “hey did you guys know women can be born without vaginas? Sucks right?”
Known as Mayer Rokitansky Küster Hauser syndrome, women with this condition are born without a cervix, uterus, or vaginal opening. Being otherwise healthy, it typically goes undiagnosed until early adulthood or whenever women start seeing a gynecologist. This is how it played out for one woman from Gilbert, Arizona.
Kaylee Moats was 18 years old when she found out she would never be able to have children. During a routine exam, an ultrasound revealed that she was missing most of her reproductive organs. When her doctor decided to take a look for herself, she found out Kaylee didn’t have a vaginal opening either and the MRKH diagnosis was confirmed. Though she and her mother were devastated, Moats moved on with her life.
Now, a 22-year-old Kaylee was faced with another gruesome consequence of her condition- she’d never be able to have sex with her boyfriend. Thankfully science is here to help.
Moats met her boyfriend, Robbie, during her senior year of college. After confiding to her suitor that she didn’t have a vaginal opening thus making conventional sex impossible, his understanding and support only made her love him more.
Fueled with passion, hormones, and more determination than ever to fuck the love of her life she decided to see if doctors could help her out. After all, if modern medical science can rearrange a penis and ball sack into a passable vagina surely they could do something her.
Unfortunately for Kaylee, the surgery to correct her condition was classified as an optional surgery by her insurance company. Considered the same as a cosmetic procedure or a gender reassessment, creating a vaginal opening for a woman who wasn’t born with one would not be covered by her insurer. Hmph!
Thankfully Kaylee’s sister Amanda started a successful GoFundMe campaign to raise the $15,000 dollars she needs to have the procedure done.
Though excited about the procedure, Moats doesn’t know if her new vagina will perform well enough for sexual intercourse. During an interview she expressed concern if everything will hold together or if sex will even be pleasurable for her. Still, for Robbie, she’s willing to try.
