In our family all ladies attained puberty with in the age of 12-13!. This problem is quite unusual .I consulted a Gynaecologist. She suggested my daughter to take scan of abdomen, and after seeing she told that possibility to attain period is very less ! Her uterus is very small… that Doctor also asked me to take a CT scan to rule out any abnormalities in brain .I am very much worried. I was shocked and brought her here for… “She wept again”.

   I saw the scan report, which revealed that the girl’s uterus and ovaries were hypoplastic. I consoled her mother with hopeful words and started taking history.
