Lina Medina (born September 27, 1933) gave birth at the age of 5 years, 7 months and 21 days and is the youngest confirmed mother in medical history.

Born in Peru, Lina was brought to a hospital by her parents at the age of 5 years because of increasing abdominal size. She was originally thought to have had a tumor, but her doctors determined she was in the seventh month of pregnancy. Dr. Gerardo Lozada took her to Lima, the capital of Peru, prior to the surgery to have other specialists confirm that Lina was in fact pregnant. A month and a half later, on May 14, 1939, she gave birth to a boy by a caesarean section necessitated by her small pelvis. The surgery was performed by Dr. Lozada and Dr. Busalleu, with Dr. Colretta providing anaesthesia. Her case was reported in detail by Dr. Edmundo Escomel to La Presse Medicale, along with the additional details that her menarche had occurred at 8 months of age, and that she had had prominent breast development by the age of 4. By age 5 her figure displayed pelvic widening and advanced bone maturation.

Her son weighed 2.7 kg (6 lb) at birth and was named Gerardo after her doctor. Gerardo was raised believing that Lina was his sister, but found out at the age of ten that she was his mother. He grew up healthy but died in 1979 at the age of 40 of a disease of the bone marrow

Lina Medina was the world's youngest mother at the age of 5. She was born September 27 1933 so that would make her 75 years today. And yes she is still alive. I suggest that Ryan's mom take a lesson in Geography because Peru where Ms Medina was born is not in India. It is in the ANDES

The worlds youngest mother lives in africa. She was eleven years of age when she had her child. The child died because her body was to small to deliver a baby. Her baby may not be alive, but she still became a mother.
