'I know there are horror stories about Turkish clinics, but I can't recommend this one highly enough'
A woman who flew to Turkey for a boob job says it saved her life after it led medics to discover she was pregnant and had a potentially deadly complication.
Medics at the Turkish hospital did an ultrasound scan and that showed Lauren was experiencing an ectopic pregnancy. That is a condition where the fertilised egg gets stuck in the fallopian tube. If left untreated it can result in a life-threatening hemorrhage. Lauren, an aesthetics practitioner and lash technician, from Southampton, Hampshire, said: "If I didn't go for that surgery I might not be here today. I was certain I wasn't pregnant - I didn't believe them at first. The staff in Turkey were amazing - they saved my life.
But just weeks before going away she began to experience intermittent bleeding, period pains and felt faint and sick. Lauren even took a pregnancy test to ensure she'd be fit to fly- which came back negative. Lauren - who travelled with Bradley, 31, an accounts manager - was shocked when tests at the cosmetic surgery clinic revealed she was expecting. The pair had not been officially trying to conceive but had "stopped using anything" after feeling they were ready for children.
