Bongekile Msibi wants said Another Child

A woman in South Africa , the BBC, as they have been sterilized, without their consent, after they learned she gave birth at the age of 17, and only, about it 11 years later, when she tried to have Another Child .

Bongekile Msibi was sterilized under the 48 women, without approval from the state hospitals, The Commission found for the equality of the sexes.

in Spite of a body corporate, the said Commission, the investigation was hampered by the "disappearance" of the patient files, and its.

The Commission said its investigators visited 15 hospitals, according to civil rights groups brought the cases, some Dating back to the year 2011, to his attention.

South Africa ' s health, the Department has not yet given a detailed response to The Report , but said its minister, Zweli Mkhize , he had asked to discuss a meeting with The Commission .

Ms Msibi remembered her ordeal to the BBC's Clare Spencer:

I woke up after the birth, looked down and asked: "Why do I have a huge bandage on my stomach?"

I had nothing against it. I only had (from the birth of my little daughter. She was a large baby and I was stunned, and went through a Caesarean Section .

I left The Hospital Five Days after the birth of a healthy baby daughter, and a large scar across my stomach.

I didn't find out what had really happened, for a further 11 years.

things unraveled to understand when I tried again.

I had been taking the pill for the whole time, since I was born, and so it was not surprising that I had my period.

But I've been busy and a baby wanted to get in to The Doctor .

He looked at me, sat me down, gave me a glass of water and told me I had no womb.

'is It very cruel,'

I was devastated and confused. It has no sense, since I was already A Mother .

I worked my uterus has been removed and only the time could it was happen after I was born.

Bongekile MsibiI want a baby so bad. When I saw a pregnant colleague This Week , I could not bear it" Bongekile Msibi

It is very cruel what you did to me.

I went to The Press , the Ministry of health, and finally ended up back in The Hospital where I gave birth to with The Doctor , and he said that he was there That Day .

He wanted to say, sorry. He told me that he was sterilized, to Save Me for My Life .

I don't know what he was trying to Save Me . There are no records in The Hospital .

I'm not the only one. An investigation has found out there are 47 other. Some said it was because she has HIV, but I don't know. I just don't know why they did it.

The Doctor told me that I had signed a consent signed Declaration. I had not. I was a minor at the time and would not have been able to.

He then said My Mother , who was with me at birth, was the signing of the Declaration of consent. You said you did it.

The message has changed My Life .

More on the concerns of women in Africa:

in the end I split up with my fiance. I had To Let him go because he wanted children really, and I couldn't give him that.

If I was The Doctor I was asked to hit what I want.

I want a baby so bad. When I saw a pregnant colleague This Week , I could not bear it.

My Daughter wants a sibling-and if we go over to street children, she suggests, I'm going as My Own .

I still have ovaries and so I think that The Hospital should pay for a surrogate.

I also want that someone be held accountable.

We can't allow that to keep doctors, do so because they do not infringe our rights as women.

Doctors need to know that you are in control, we know what you get up to when we are lifeless.

And Then I would like to say to The Doctor who did this to, he is sad.

The way this was handled, you would think they had just removed with a finger, if that is actually the whole of my femininity, you have stolen.

I can never on and The Scar is always a reminder.
