Bachelor vet Hannah Brown reveals ‘shocking’ double uterus diagnosis

Former Bachelorette Hannah Brown revealed that she was diagnosed with a rare uterine abnormality that affects only 0.3 percent of the female population. 

While appearing on Maria Menounos’ podcast, Heal Squad, the reality star opened up about finding out that she has a double uterus at age 30.

‘It was definitely a shock,’ the God Bless This Mess said of her health condition, before detailing how it may affect her fertility down the line.

While she has not undergone the exploratory surgery to learn more about her double uterus, Brown explained ‘it looks like they’re attached in some way.’ 

‘It’s just like a split,’ Brown, who is set to wed fiancé Adam Woolard, told Menuonos, said. 

While she hasn’t ‘quite gotten to’ the stage of wanting to have a child, just yet, the TV personality noted her doctor advised she freezes her eggs soon.

Brown said after she gets married this year, she ‘will get right on that.’ 

Women, who have a double uterus (uterus didelphys), do have an increased risk of pregnancy complications, such as miscarriage and preterm birth.

The condition can also potentially affect fertility as some women with it may experience difficulties conceiving.

Others, however, many others have no issues getting pregnant and can carry to term, according to Mayo Clinic. 

Despite the possibility of some complications, Brown pointed out: ‘There have been cases of people having double uteruses and having babies and being perfectly fine.’ 

Although the news took her by surprise, she is grateful for the knowledge as she figures out her future plans. 

‘I definitely think I would love to have a child, and I don’t want to miss out on that experience,’ she said. ‘But I haven’t been quite ready yet, which I think makes sense. I want to get married first. I want to be able to do that.’ 

‘I’ve never been to just like, just waiting, waiting, waiting for that to happen,’ she continued. ‘But I do think I’ll I’m going to want to have that experience, when it’s time.’

Back in 2021, Brown revealed in her memoir that she was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer at age 11 and underwent a surgery which removed the tumor. 

When she was in fifth grade, she underwent an MRI in order to find out what had been causing her frequent stomach aches. However, the procedure revealed she had a ‘tumor the size of an egg’ on her pancreas.

‘They sent me for a biopsy, and a day or so later, my dad got a call with the results — not from our regular doctor, but from an oncologist. The tumor was malignant. Cancer. Pancreatic cancer — one of the ᴅᴇᴀᴅliest forms of cancer there is,’ she said. 

However, Brown was given some peace of mind after the oncologist informed her the cancer had not spread.

‘On the day of my surgery, I wasn’t scared about what was going to happen to me. At all,’ Hannah wrote. ‘Even though my mother was in tears and my dad looked as worried as I’d ever seen him in my life as the nurses came to wheel me into the operating room, I looked up at my mom from my hospital bed and said, “Mama, I’m going to be okay.”‘

The tumor was entirely removed during the procedure and she did not have to go through radiation and chemotherapy. 

Brown also previously revealed that she suffers from ‘horrible and haunting’ sleep paralysis, narcolepsy, inflammation, anxiety and PCOS.

In her book, she speculated that her battle with narcolepsy was ‘a direct symptom of the trauma of’ learning her aunt LeeLee and her two young cousins, Robin and Trent, were murdered.

Additionally, she has been open about suffering from asthma since she was five. 

In December 2022, she had an asthma attack on a flight that was so severe her plane had to be ‘diverted’ and she was met with a stretcher. 

‘I was shaking uncontrollably and trying to grab my inhaler — but I couldn’t take in the air,’ she told People. ‘It was embarrᴀssing.’ 

Brown told the outlet that she feels like she ‘spent most’ of her ‘childhood in a doctor’s office, doing my homework and playing I Spy.’ 

‘I was a pretty sick kid, catching everything going around school,’ she explained.
