YouTube Celebrity Cassandra Bankson Reveals She Has Two Vaginas [Video]

A YouTube star named Cassandra Bankson made a name for herself by producing makeup tutorials online, particularly addressing how to deal with persistent acne. Now, Bankson is opening up about another personal issue, having recently revealed that she has two vaginas.

According to Barcroft TV, Cassandra Bankson shocked her fans when she made an honest declaration about an extremely rare medical condition called uterus didelpys. Despite living her entire life with two vaginas, Cassandra admitted she didn’t know much about the condition and wanted to learn more — particularly about whether or not having two vaginas causes her acne.

In the video above, Bankson reveals that everything looks the same on the outside, but inside the two vaginas split down the center like a septum in a nose separating two distinct cavities. According to the Mayo Clinic,two vaginas only needs to be treated as a result of pelvic pain or frequent pregnancy complications.

“A lot of women don’t even know they have this condition,” said Dr. Dena Harris, Bankson’s gynecologist. “[They] find out when they’re pregnant. So it’s possible it won’t even bother [Cassandra] in a sexual way either.”

Cassandra Bankson also recently published an article about how she lives with two vaginas on Mimi Chatter. In the article, Cassandra speaks very candidly about the emotions and social difficulty of having two vaginas, and how it has affected her perception of herself.

“I’ve always hated my ‘lady parts,’ even from a young age… Due to a mix of low self-esteem, the media’s portrayal of women in society, and a series of sexual traumatic occurrences in my teens, having a vagina (let alone two) has always made me feel void of my own image and identity, like an object as opposed to an overcomer.”

Now that Cassandra Bankson understands more about the condition of having two vaginas, she has been able to make better peace with herself and her body, and use her fanbase of a quarter-million subscribers to spread positive messages. Despite living with two difficult medical conditions, Cassandra frequently uploads videos providing advice on how to cope with bullying.

“I’m learning to overcome life’s obstacles, love myself in every aspect,” Cassandra says, “and take this opportunity as a chance to help educate others, not just about this condition, but further break open and inspect the stigma of how the world views women and their vaginas.”
