A man from a small village in the Andes Mountains carried his five-year-old daughter into a hospital.The father told Dr. Gérado Lozada that her daughter strangely having
regular periodssince age three, but they had
stopped about 7 1/2 months prior to the visit. Dr. Gérado listened to the young girl's abdomen with a stethoscope, and heard
a tiny second heartbeat. An X-Ray was also performed, after which there could be no doubt… to the doctors' astonishment,
five-year-old Lina Medina was about seven months pregnant!
Further research into the case was done by Dr. Edmundo Escomel, one of Peru's preeminent physician-researchers at the time. He discovered that
Lina's menstruations had actually begun when she was
only eight months old, much sooner than her father had originally reported.
Lina's father was
arrested on suspicion of incest, but due to lack of evidence, he was released.
