Of course I knew that. 

Did you know that the immortal HeLa cells used for biotech today came from a black woman's vagina who died in the 1950s?

Her name was Henrietta Lacks and I don’t think they even got permission to harvest her cells.

They didn't,  but her family eventually sued. They've gotten at least three settlements from different pharmaceutical companies.

Some vaginal cysts can have teeth and hair?

That can happen with cysts anywhere on the body.
