I live in Avang Esatop, a village of Nsocknsomo of Kie Ntem
province. I am 25 years old, a married and jobless woman. I have
had 6 pregnancies and 6 deliveries.
When I was 15 yeas old, I had my first delivery in which I had pains
from my house. It was a delivery pains. After 5 days I delivered a
child and had 5 delivery painful days. I was assisted by a village
woman she was not traditional midwife, inspite of the 15 km distance
to the hospital, but, my family did not take me anywhere, I am sure
that my child deceased due to this situaion, even it was a wanted
pregnancy.
After 2 months delivery, my vagin started to receive constant flows
and bad odor. I noticed that I was urinating uncontroledly, and in view
of that, I went to the hospital of Bata were l was operated. But I could
not be well. So, I decided to go to Cameroon to have a second
operation. I did not have any positive solution.
