When Annie Charlotte went in for a routine contraceptive appointment, she never expected to leave with a life-changing diagnosis — and a whole new perspective on her body.
What started as a normal checkup quickly turned into a medical mystery.
A complete surprise
British model and OnlyFans creator Annie Charlotte, 26, was born with a rare condition called uterus didelphys — meaning she has two separate wombs. In theory, it’s possible for her to become pregnant in both at the same time.
But Annie lived for years without knowing she had the condition.
It wasn’t until ten years ago, at the age of 16, that Annie discovered the truth about her body, during an contraceptive appointment.
“The nurse went to insert [a contraceptive coil] and felt a wall in the middle of my canal,” Annie told IGV. “After multiple scans and doctor’s appointments, I was told I was born with this super rare medical condition called ‘uterus didelphys,’ which means I have two vaginas, two cervixes, and two uteruses.”
According to the Cleveland Clinic, uterus didelphys is a congenital condition that results in a double uterus — and, in some cases like Annie’s, two complete vaginal canals. In the United States, uterus didelphys is reported to occur in 0.1–0.5% of women.
Now 26, Annie is using her voice and viral platform to bring attention to what life is really like living with such a rare condition — the good, the bad, and the downright bizarre.
Annie says the diagnosis came as a complete surprise. It hadn’t been detected at birth or during childhood.
“My family didn’t really talk about it, and I never told my friends until I was in university,” she said. “I was super ashamed of it for some reason, I guess it was because I was 16 years old and didn’t want to be different to anyone else.”
Her brother helped break the ice with humor. “He called me and said, ‘Welcome to the X-Men, seeing as you are now a mutant.’”
The hidden struggles
Though she’s learned to embrace her uniqueness, Annie admits there’s been a frustrating lack of medical knowledge and support.
“It has been super difficult to get any information or support with my condition. I don’t have a gynecologist, nor do I have many answers about my condition. I have had to figure it out on my own,” she said. “Which has sucked because I wish there were more answers. I wish there were much less speculation and more facts.”
She even recalled a troubling emergency room visit: “I had to go to A&E one time because I had issues with my vaginas and I was worried that something was wrong. When I saw the A&E consultant, he was shocked. Every time I see a gynecologist, I get discharged almost immediately.”
Fertility issues
Doctors have warned Annie about serious fertility issues.
“There is a potential chance of multiple miscarriages before I have a successful pregnancy,” she said. “I have been told by another doctor that I would not be able to give birth to my children, I would have to have a C-section, and that they would be premature and likely to have to be in incubators.”
Still, she has no plans to change her body. “Nothing. I don’t want to change the way I am,” she said firmly.
And despite the heartbreak and unknowns, she’s finally reached a place of self-love.
“I hated having two, I just wanted to be normal, so I wanted one. I didn’t want to talk about it. Then one day I spoke to my friends who were like, ‘This is so cool!’” she shared. “I’ve learned to love it now! It is a massive part of my job and I am the ‘Two P***y Princess,’ how cool?!”
Annie admits her condition often becomes a “chat-up line” — but not in a good way.
“I would say it makes people want to have sex with me more just to know what it feels like,” she said. “Though I have been told I have a pretty warped view of dating, as I fully believe I can have two boyfriends at once and it not be cheating as I have two, they can just have one each. I was doing that until recently, but they found out and ended it with me. They unfortunately did not have the same view.”
The questions everyone always asks
Opening up about her rare anatomy has made Annie the target of some pretty degrading behavior on dating apps.
“Now I’m on a lot of dating apps and people will be like ‘you’re the two p****s girl,’” she told news.com.au. “Men ask if I’ve ‘had two at a time.’ When I say I haven’t, they quickly offer to ‘sort me out.’”
In one particularly disturbing incident, she was seeing a well-known man who brought his friend over one night after a few drinks. “Next minute, he said he’d been thinking he and his mate ‘wanted to be tunnel buddies in separate vaginas,’” Annie recalled. “He’d thought about it and rehearsed the speech.”
She was stunned — but that wasn’t the only time it happened. “In another circumstance, I had a man rock up to a date with his friend. I asked what was going on, and he said, ‘Well, two vaginas so I thought two guys would be appropriate.’”
“It makes me feel rubbish. People are just seeing me as a sex object,” she admitted. “With my dating life, I am more than just my two vaginas.”
No regrets
Though the reactions haven’t always been kind, Annie has no regrets about being open.
“Many people have reached out to thank me. My honesty, they’ve said, has given them a reference point to bring up their own concerns to friends about their genitalia.”
She hopes to raise more awareness and push for better support for others dealing with rare gynecological conditions.
“There is no information about it, no one knows how to help women who have this condition to have children,” Annie said. “There is no support, and women are suffering alone.”
She added: “Gynecologists often say it in a way that is so insensitive when it is such a sensitive issue. There needs to be more support for all women with medical issues within the gynecological field — not just with my condition.”
Inside her goals
Annie isn’t shy about her ambitions.
“I want me and my two vaginas to be famous in the adult world! I cannot wait to be a famous p**n star,” she said with confidence.
And to the girls out there who feel different, or who might be struggling with their own diagnoses, she offers one powerful piece of advice:
“Don’t be ashamed of something you have no control over. Dealing with the impacts on fertility alone is hard, and no one should have to suffer those conversations, those doctors’ appointments, and many other things alone.”
If she could go back and speak to her 16-year-old self, her message would be simple: “LOVE YOURSELF – it is something I am still trying to do now.”
