In an interview on Talk Life TV, Mrs Korkor Addo said she and her husband decided to wait for two years before having children after they got married. However, after the waiting period, she did not conceive.

When they visited the hospital, a doctor said her tubes were blocked. So, a medical procedure was done to ensure she could conceive. However, she was still unable to get pregnant.

Mrs Korkor Addo said they tried several doctors and hospitals based on recommendations. She added that they visited a doctor in Ghana who diagnosed her with a fibroid.

However, she did not believe the doctor until the man showed him the scans on the screen. There was another procedure to remove the fibroids.

She indicated that even though her in-laws and family were not pressuring her for a child, she once told her husband to impregnate another woman, as she could not give him children, but he refused.

Another visit to Ghana led her to visit another health facility where the specialist helped her to conceive.

Mrs Korkor Addo said when the doctor told her she was pregnant, she did not know what to do. Many people who heard of her pregnancy and knew their story were happy for them.

The woman gave birth to a baby girl after 17 years of being together.
