International model and YouTube makeup star, Cassandra Bankson, recently discovered that she has two vaginas. Cassandra was bullied as a teen for having severe acne and became famous on YouTube for showing how she successfully covers up her acne and scars. She has more than 750,000 followers.

The 22-year-old, discovered the rare condition after visiting her doctor for back pain.

After undergoing tests not only did her doctor discover that she only had one kidney but that she has two vaginas.

According to Daillymail, the condition, uterus didelphys, is also known as double uterus, and occurs because the uterus starts out as two small tubes in the womb.

As the foetus develops, the tubes normally join to create the uterus but sometimes the tubes don't join completely and each one develops into a separate hollow organ so the woman is born with two wombs.

It often only becomes noticeable after puberty and is diagnosed with a physical exam or an ultrasound scan.
