Abstract
Acquired Gynaetresia is more common in developing countries mostly due to unconventional crude treatment involving per vagina insertion of various caustic substances for various gynaecological purposes leading to tissue injury, alongside possible superimposed infection from unhygienic local substances and eventual healing by fibrosis. This case reports brings to fore a case of 32-year-old woman with four months history of absent menses following insertion of corrosive in the vagina to treat premature ovarian failure. This caused her severe vaginal stenosis which was subsequently corrected by surgery and serial dilatation.
