Meet The 5-year-old Who Became The Youngest Mother In History by Jeniemax: 10:13am On Jul 01, 2020 |
Precocious puberty made it possible for 5-year-old Lina Medina of Peru to get pregnant and produce a bouncing baby boy. This scenario has remained a mystery, especially in medical history. It was in April 1939, when Lina Medina’s mother took her to the hospital in Pisco, Peru, to see the renowned Dr. Gerardo Lozada for help.
