A WOMAN has gone viral after claiming that her great-grandmother has allegedly fallen pregnant at 76, leaving the web totally baffled.

In a shocking turn of events posted in a now-viral video, the woman’s great-granddaughter, only known as Miyah, watched a doctor break the bizarre news to the elderly woman whilst she was in the hospital bed.

The short clip sees the female staff member come into the room before announcing what they had allegedly found.

”We got your urine back and you are definitely pregnant,” she said, as the great-granny was either in total disbelief or didn’t quite hear what she had just been told.

”What?”

The doctor then went on to add that the woman was already 12 weeks into her pregnancy journey and asked whether she had been having sex recently.

”No, no!” the great-grandmother quickly hit back, as the doctor proceeded to chuckle a little.

According to Miyah, whose video has since racked up over an astronomical 40million views in just four days, the baby is allegedly due to arrive this summer in July.

Sharing further updates on the alleged pregnancy, Miyah filmed her great-grandmother in the hospital and said they were ”gonna have a baby shower”.

Chatting to the happy patient who wanted to ”keep the baby”, Miyah said: ”I don’t know who’s gonna raise it, so we’re gonna find out.”

Miyah later claimed that the OAP has been rushed to A&E after she suddenly felt dizzy and unwell – which the family assumed had to do with her blood sugar.

In a follow-up video, the young woman added that her elderly relative then had to provide a urine sample, so the doctors could run some tests – and this is when they supposedly discovered the pregnancy.

After taking the web by storm, the great-granddaughter told viewers to ”stay tuned” for both the gender reveal – as well as finding out who the potential ”baby daddy” is.

But as fertility generally starts to slowly decline when a woman is in her early 30s, the 76-year-old left social media users gobsmacked.

More than 23k stunned viewers flooded to comments in total disbelief, shocked to see that a woman nearing her 80s had allegedly fallen pregnant.

One wrote: ”Wait?! At 76?? That's possible?? That's kinda scary.”

”NAH THIS GOTTA BE A PRANK,” someone else typed.

”Whattttt!!! You can still get pregnant almost close to 80?” a third sceptic was lost for words.

Meanwhile, another was more confused by a different aspect, wondering: ”So if a grandma has kids… what do the grandkids call them?”

Chatting to Fabulous, Dr Unsworth, renowned gynaecology expert and INTIMINA's in-house expert, explained why she was sceptical about the video.

"There is no physical way that an 76 year old can fall pregnant naturally.

”There been some cases have reported pregnancies in women in their 60s and 70s in various countries, but these have all been through IVF – not natural conception. 

"My concern would be is if an 76 year old lady had a positive pregnancy test, this could indicate that her body is producing HCG for other reasons and there is the potential that this could maybe be some sort of abnormal tumour and it’s secreting hormone and that’s what the pregnancy test is indicating.”

She went on: "In terms of a pregnancy test telling you how many weeks pregnant you are, there are some that can give a rough idea based on the amount of Beta HCG the test picks up.

”My advice on that is that it is not particularly accurate – in order to work out exactly how far  along someone is in their pregnant, you need to be looking at their last menstrual period and working out from there, or obviously having an ultrasound scan where they can do measurements and that can give a little bit of guidance.

”I would never go by a a pregnancy test level because I don't think that's an accurate way of actually measuring the duration of a pregnancy.”
