Born without a cervix or uterus.

I've been worried about my younger sister, who hasn't called or emailed me about her doctor's appointment yesterday. She is 17 years old, and has never had her menstrual cycle. She had went to the doctor, and they gave her a pill that is supposed to make her cycle start. I guess it didn't work because my mom said that she was supposed to have a sonogram yesterday, and that the doctor said that some girls are just born without a cervix or uterus. I did a little bit of research about it on the internet because I had never heard of that. It's actually fairly common, occurring in 1 out of every 4000 girls. I just feel so bad for her if this is the case. She would only be able to have children by in vitro fertilization of a surrogate mother. I just really hope that she calls and lets me know how she's doing. She lives with her dad, so me and my mom don't get to see her very often. It's a part of life that a girl needs her mother or sister, and I hope that she can talk to one of us about it. Anyway, if you know anything more about this issue please share. Like I said before, I had never heard of this, and it would be so hard to deal with if this is what's going on with her.
