Medina was the youngest girl ever to give birth. She was just 5 years, 7
months, and 21 days when her 2.7 kg (6.0 lb) son Gerardo was born.

November Hilda entered the Maternity Hospital as the patient of
Obstetrician Rolando Colareta, underwent examination by a team of 16
obstetricians, gland specialists, radiologists, psychiatrists and
general practitioners.
They reported her to be
normal, only a little older-looking than other girls of her age. After
one month, on December 1957 she gave birth to a baby girl. Her 22 year
old cousin was arrested, accused of rape.
Dr
Rolando Colareta who examined her gave reasoning saying “the rape of
minors is nothing so unusual here or anywhere else. But of course rape
does not mean pregnancy in children so young, except in rare cases”.
