YouTube star Cassandra Bankson has made a name for herself after filming easy-to-follow tutorials and emotional clips on how she deals with severe acne.

But after a routine scan. Cassandra learnt that she also suffers from uterus didelphys, meaning she possesses not one, but two vaginas.

She explained to Barcroft TV: "When we got the test results back the doctor said I only had one kidney and flippantly added that I have two vaginas - as she suspected.

"There is one vaginal opening but inside there are two vaginas, two uteri, two cervixes. Most vaginas are one large cavity but this is a complete separation into two different cavities.

"I was shocked and the doctor explained to me that it was like an upside nose. I didn't really know what to make of it - I was just in shock but I don't really let it get in the way of my life. It certainly helped explain a lot of things."

The condition has left her with very painful periods, the symptoms of which she suffered from throughout her teens.

She says: "Ever since I was younger I would go to the doctor because I was bleeding for 28 days or I would have two periods a month - but they never suspected I had a second vagina.

"I always had really bad cramps - I could not move or my bowels would just not want to behave because the cramps were so bad."
