She was originally thought to have a tumor, but doctors determined she was in her seventh month of pregnancy. Dr Gerardo Lozada took Medina to Lima to have other specialists confirm that she was pregnant.[3] Contemporary newspaper accounts indicate that interest in the case developed on many fronts. In anticipation of the girl's expected visit to U.S. university scientific facilities, the San Antonio Light newspaper in Texas reported in its 16 July, 1939, edition that a Peruvian national obstetrician/midwife association had demanded that the girl be transported to a national maternity hospital. The paper quoted 18 April reports in the Peruvian paper La Crónica stating that a North American filmmaking concern had sent down a representative "with authority to offer the sum of $5,000 to benefit the minor [in exchange for filming rights] ... we know that the offer was rejected."[4] The same article, reprinted from a Chicago paper, noted that Lozada had made films of Medina for scientific documentation and had shown them around 21 April while addressing Peru's National Academy of Medicine; on a subsequent visit to Lina's remote hometown, some of the baggage carrying the films had fallen into the river while crossing "a very primitive bridge ... Enough of his pictorial record remained, however, to intrigue the learned savants."[4] A month and a half after the original diagnosis, Medina gave birth by caesarean section to a boy. She was 5 years, 7 months, and 21 days,[3] the youngest known person in history to give birth. The caesarean birth was necessitated by her small pelvis. The surgery was performed by Lozada and Dr Busalleu, with Dr Colareta providing anaesthesia. When doctors performed the caesarean to deliver her baby, they found she already had fully mature sexual organs from precocious puberty.[1] Her case was reported in detail by Dr. Edmundo Escomel in the medical journal La Presse Médicale, including the additional details that her menarche had occurred at eight months of age, in contrast to a past report stating that she had been having regular periods since she was three years old[3][5][6] (or 2½ according to a different article).[1] Medina's son weighed {{convert|2.7|kg|lb st|abbr=on}} at birth and was named Gerardo after her doctor. Gerardo was raised believing that Medina was his sister, but found out at the age of 10 that she was, in fact, his mother.[3] Identity of the father and later lifeMedina has never revealed the father of the child nor the circumstances of her impregnation. Escomel suggested she might not actually know herself by writing that Medina "couldn't give precise responses".[3] Although Lina's father was arrested on suspicion of child sexual abuse, he was later released due to lack of evidence, and the biological father was never identified.[3][7] Her son grew up healthy. He died in 1979 at the age of 40.[3] In young adulthood, Medina worked as a secretary in the Lima clinic of Lozada, who gave her an education and helped put her son through high school.[21] Medina later married Raúl Jurado, who fathered her second son in 1972. {{As of|2002}}, they lived in a poor district of Lima known as "Chicago Chico".[8] She refused an interview with Reuters that year,[1] just as she had turned away many reporters in years past.[21] DocumentationAlthough it was speculated that the case was a hoax, a number of doctors over the years have verified it based on biopsies, X rays of the fetal skeleton in utero, and photographs taken by the doctors caring for her.[3][9][10] There are two published photographs documenting the case. The first was taken around the beginning of April 1939, when Medina was seven-and-a-half months into pregnancy. Taken from Medina's left side, it shows her standing naked in front of a neutral backdrop. This is the only published photograph of Lina taken during her pregnancy.[11] In 1955, except for the effects of precocious puberty,[1] there was no explanation of how a five-year-old girl could conceive a child.[12] Extreme precocious pregnancy in children aged five or under has only been documented with Medina.[1][6] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 {{cite news|title=Six decades later, world's youngest mother awaits aid |url=http://www.telegraphindia.com/1020827/asp/foreign/story_1140311.asp |work=The Telegraph |date=27 August 2002 |accessdate=14 July 2009 |archiveurl=https://www.webcitation.org/5iJ65vfQ8?url=http://www.telegraphindia.com/1020827/asp/foreign/story_1140311.asp |archivedate=16 July 2009 |deadurl=yes |df= }} 2. ^Elgar Brown (for Chicago Evening American).
