Doctors in Uganda, in East Africa, have decided to prevent a woman from giving birth of babies anymore.

This woman has delivered 44 children despite being at the age of 40 years.

Of course, some of those children she had delivered were twins.

Mariam Nabatanzi who  suffers from a rare hereditary disorder made her gave birth of groups of twins.

She delivered 5 groups of quadruple twins, four groups of trio twins and six groups of dual twins; the total is 44 babies.

Local people called that woman as the most fertile in the world.

Nabatanzi was married at the age of 12 years to a man at the age of 40 years.

One time, she gave birth of six twins but they died all following the delivery.

The number of Nabatanzi's sons who are still alive and kicking is 38.

Her husband has estranged her since four year so she takes care of her sons alone.

The mega family lives in four wretched houses built of cement blocks and topped with rusty iron sheets.

Those houses is situated in a region famous for wide fields of coffee.

Clinicians warn the woman that any means of  contraceptives may cause complicated problems because she has too large ovaries.

Nabatanzi had continued  in giving birth over 28 years.

The doctors said that it is a unique case.

Nabatanzi is working as a dressmaker and hairdresser to win bread for her family.

She is also an herbalist and offers services for the poor neighboring people.

Recently she has received medical support to stop giving birth.

Gynecologists decided to take measures to conduct hysterectomy operation to her to prevent her from giving birth forever.

It is worth to mention that  a hysterectomy is a surgical procedure to remove a woman’s uterus. The uterus, also known as the womb, is where a baby grows when a woman is pregnant. The uterine lining is the source of menstrual blood.

You may need a hysterectomy for many reasons. The surgery can be used to treat a number of chronic pain conditions as well as certain types of cancer and infections.

The extent of a hysterectomy varies depending on the reason for the surgery. In most cases, the entire uterus is removed. The doctor may also remove the ovaries and the fallopian tubes during the procedure. The ovaries are the organs that produce estrogen and other hormones. The fallopian tubes are the structures that transport the egg from the ovary to the uterus.

Once you’ve had a hysterectomy, you’ll stop having menstrual periods. You’ll also be unable to get pregnant.
