Zambian Woman Gives Birth To Tufts Of Hair?
A 26-year-old woman in Zambia’s Luwingu district has given
birth to pure hair, according to the Luwingu District Medical Officer, Dr
Ernest Mutale.
The Zambia National Information Services (ZANIS) on
Wednesday reported the woman had been 10 months pregnant and she gave birth to pure
hair and a little blood.
According to Dr Mutale, the woman, a Ms. Mwape, was referred
to Luwingu District Hospital from Chikoyi rural health centre after she gave
birth to something that looked like Brazilian hair.
He said that after a medical check-up, Mwape narrated that
she was feeling as though the pregnancy was normal as she would feel the baby
kicking in her womb.
The Luwingu District Medical Officer said that Mwape
attended ante-natal regularly but her medical records showed that there were no
irregular movements.
He said that the medical team suspected Mwape had a molar
pregnancy but after several medical check-ups results showed that it was not.
