What is a duplicated uterus and or vagina?

A duplicated uterus – or a double uterus – is a uterus that has two separate cavities. Each cavity may lead to its own cervix (womb). In some cases, females with a double uterus also have a duplicated vagina. Both vaginas may develop properly on both sides, or one vagina can be blocked. The duplicated vagina may or may not be apparent from physical appearance.
