What the heck is uterus didelphys?

ed begley jr, mark harmon, william danielsWe got a message in to the TV Squad home office, located in beautiful downtown Orofino Idaho, from the fine folks over at WebMD. They have recently launched a new blog which will support or refute cases from the various medical shows. I've always been one to just roll with whatever kind of crazy story the writers come up with. Two people stuck together on a pole? Ok. A woman with African sleeping sickness? Tell me all about it. But even with my I'll believe anything once attitude, this site is fascinating. After you watch your medical show of choice, check in with the team at WebMD to see how the writers did.

Right now they have stories on the woman with two uteruses on Grey's Anatomy, broken heart syndrome from ER, and the kidney thieves on Nip/Tuck, to name a few. Next time you are at a party, just ask a random person, "Did you know that a woman can have two uteruses? And she can give birth to twins two months apart?" That's an icebreaker right there.

Oh what an awesome site! I've wondered about a few plots from time to time. Also they're pretty quick to get info up right after a show airs. Thanks for telling us about it!
