Baby making is something most of us learn in secondary school. At least the theory. We learn that, in order to create life, a penis must be inserted into a vagina at the right time of the month so that the egg from the woman and the sperm from the man meet.

Theoretically speaking, that seems easy but the reality of making a baby is far different. Every day, couples, heterosexual and/or queer, struggle to fulfill their desire. Whether it’s about fertility problems or simply having to go through a lot of medical procedures, having a baby is not as easy as theory makes it sound.
The story of this Chinese couple is something like you’ve never heard before…
‘Having sex the wrong way’
The couple 24 and 26 had to get medical input after being married for 4 years without managing to get pregnant. The young couple was confused as to why they couldn’t conceive despite telling doctors that they were having regular intercourse.
During the medical examination the woman shared that intercourse was ‘usually painful’, every time she and her husband were having sex. Because of this and their regular intercourse, doctors decided to do further tests.
Obstetrician Liu Hongmei said:
The couple were very young, the man 26 and the woman 24. They were very healthy, but, despite being married for four years, couldn't conceive. Their family was giving them a lot of stress because of it
During the examination, doctors discovered that the woman was still a ‘virgin.’ The use of the word ‘virgin’ here is understood to mean that the presence of her hymen was noticed.
Indeed, it turned out that the couple had been mistakenly having anal sex since the beginning of their relationship.

Lack of sex education
Because of the couple’s mistake, Doctor Liu concluded that their adventure was due to a lack of sex education.
That is why, Doctor Liu handed the couple a handbook as well as some guidelines. In the end, the couple had their happy ending and managed to get pregnant. As a thank you, they sent the hospital 100 eggs and a hen!
