Sterilization and medical experiments in Auschwitz | DW Documentary
In Auschwitz, gynecologist Carl Clauberg attempted to sterilize hundreds of girls and women. Many died. Some of the last survivors relate their terrible experiences at the death camp.
Almost 80 years ago, Kiel gynecologist Carl Clauberg was given permission by SS-Reichsführer Heinrich Himmler to sterilize hundreds of girls and women in Block 10 at the Auschwitz concentration camp. Clauberg had previously worked with the chemical company Schering-Kahlbaum AG to develop hormone drugs and contrast agents for use in his experiments. "We were called up with our numbers, then Clauberg appeared and injected something into our vaginas. And then they sometimes said: ‘No more children’,” remembers Auschwitz survivor Leny Adelaar.
Carl Clauberg was a leading light in world of reproductive medicine at the time; an ambitious, driven doctor who volunteered his services to the Nazis as a way to further his career. His research paved the way for the invention of the birth control pill. His work on birth control and infertility is still part of the medical canon to this day - but all too often, a veil is drawn over his experiments at Auschwitz.
This documentary records the experiences of the last survivors of those terrible experiences. The women talk about their lives before and after the death camp, about their suffering, their loss and how they managed to carry on living after liberation. Among them were some who were fortunate enough to have children, against all odds.

For some reason this video reminds me of the incident in Saudi Arabia where they found a baby dumped in the airport loo and they rounded up and forced every woman at the airport to undergo a test to prove she wasn't the mother. They performed the medical exam upon them without their consent and against their wishes. They had to do it or be sent to prison. Those women spoke about the fear and humiliation they went through

It's different when something is in your history book versus when it's standing in front of you talking. It's easy to displace ourselves from reality when it's an image on a TV or on pages. But that part of us that wants to deny the existence of pure evil can't anymore when faced with the truth in front of us. It changes us forever. I'm glad you had this experience.

My older then dirt grade 12 history teacher was a ww2 vet. When it came to learning about ww2 he actually rounded up a bunch of vet friends both in person and online, and a few of who would have at one time been his enemies to explain the war. Hits a lot harder when you're hearing personal stories from all sides and countries. Some of those stories were absolutely chilling.

Is it the right way to have big companies pay some money? After that they feel that they have paid their guilt and now all is counterbalanced and over. Doesn’t remind you this to the selling of indulgences of the Catholic Church ? Can guilt be paid for to remove it? So if the company is big it can whitewash its sins with money but poor ones stay guilty? This is a big question! Does punishment lead to improvement? Is paying money an adequate way? Sure there have to be consequences!!! Finally it is that one human being who does the crime, the torture and shouldn’t that be the aim to change every single human. Like today they say: I was told to and it was my duty So is there any avail to make the company pay some money but leave the individual in his mind set? Probably not.

Share and Post the stories they refuse to teach. Stories that must never be forgotten.
DW documentaries are simply the best especially the ones regarding WW2 & Cold War.I really want to visit Auschwitz once in my lifetime.Thank you DW for interviewing these brave women before they passed away.I know the experiments at Auschwitz and Unit 731 resulted in medical breakthroughs but the way these cruel & inhumane experiments were conducted are simply unacceptable.Its sad that all the doctors of block 10 escaped justice and the women were not honoured.

A wealth of knowledge shared by these brave women. I have nothing short of immense respect and awe of their courage. Thank you for creating this significant documentary.
I know I keep seeing these stories, and every time they bring tears to my eyes. They have to keep being told, no matter what they have to be told about man’s inhumanity to man, or woman. We cannot allow this to be repeated ever. Thank you for sharing.
These women had incredibly long lives. I hope they overcame and had good lives. I can't imagine surviving what they endured. RIP🙏
Honestly these women are so brave to have lived through pure horror and hell. The fact someone can harm another person in such a way goes to show how wicked humans really are
Such an important and tragic story. If only all of these women could have been granted the justice they deserved and been able to confront the monster who hurt them. Thank you for making this film.

So horrifying, I’m so sorry what the survivors went through. None of you deserved this. Never again!💙
My great grandfather (he was german as I am) was put in a KZ in Germany and luckily survived it. He was a very lovely person and was 93 when he died. The guard was a bad person, he told him everyday that they would hang him the next day, so he was in fear a lot.
It is amazing the strength and resilience of these woman what they went through and yet they lived to a great age may their souls be at rest.
Just back from visiting Poland and after long debate (I wasn’t sure I could handle it) we went to Auschwitz. It was snowing and the site was spectral. I saw block 10. Chilling. Some parts I didn’t go in but ultimately I am glad I went. I had seen the documentaries and read the stories but when you are there it’s a punch in the gut, so important to reflect on humanities worst and honour the victims. 🙏
These stories are haunting. My imagination paints pictures so much more vivid than are ever shown in these documentaries. My heart breaks for them. 💙

I worked with a lady back around the early to mid '90s, & she also showed me her arm with tattuide numbers. I also asked her why she had so many many Dogs on her property & each Dog had their own dog house, and she told me that back durring the Holicost that there was some Dogs that Saved Her Life. She made a promise to always take in stray Dogs. She has around a 100 and im not kidding. And this woman was tough as nails. This was in the U.S.A., Princeton, Indiana, Gibson County.
It is so obvious these doctors saw the prisoners as no more than the animals usually experimented on. I can’t get my head around that fact. One of the most frightening displays of how corrupt a human can be.

It's the same today, I have great health insurance but I cannot find one gynecologist to see me if I do not want an ultrasound. Even though ultrasounds should be only done for medical reasons. I have a normal, uneventful pregnancy, yet, I am not allowed to refuse it. Why am I being forced to perform a medical procedure that I don't want or not get any prenatal care if I politely refuse? So much for medical freedom.

There's good reason for ultrasounds You absolutely have a right to refuse any medical care But the medical provider absolutely has a right to refuse to administer care. If you do refuse care and they proceed without an ultrasound and a baby is born with something wrong that could have been detected sooner and you try to pin it in the doctor that's a mess doctors want to avoid

What did we allow to happen since Dec. 2021?
I'm 63 and in 1993 aged 33, I was sterilised. I live in the UK. Thank goodness, I was anaesthetised. When I came round and later the painkillers wore off, I was in agony and was doubled over in pain. I can't begin to imagine what those poor women went through with no anaesthetic at all. It's amazing they survived, but thank God they did. I am sure that man who committed these atrocities and died before he went to trial, is rotting in hell. I hope those poor ladies are resting in peace. What amazes me is that I was born in January 1960, 15 years after the end of the war. But now, 15 years ago is nothing, it seems like yesterday. I hope and pray we don't have another world war. It is dreadful what some people do in wars, to fellow humans. Let's all pray for World peace, in these fractious times we live in. My father was 19 at the start of the 2nd World War, and fought for our country and was in the medical corps. He sadly died in 1995, aged 75. My 89 year old mother is still alive, and was a child during the war. Those poor ladies who endured that horror in the hands of sadistic men, were incredibly brave. Rest in peace ladies.

Am amazed that you were not taught about the Holocaust. In the USA of all places - the planet’s bastion of freedom. There’s a huge and brilliant Holocaust Museum in Washington; have you not been there? Am stunned. It is not “ancient” history. I am 80, and was alive for 3 years of it. I hope you will one day be able to visit the museum. What you are learning on KZread is mostly accurate and well done, but there is a great deal more to it. Millions of humans cannot be murdered without a great deal of organisation, a great deal of finance, and a gigantic amount of complicity by “respectable” citizens in each involved country.

They were still teaching about the Holocaust when my kids were in school in the '90s. I made sure that all of them learned about it by visiting the displays that used to be in the museums, and also attending the Holocaust museum in DC. They were lucky enough also to have family members that were still alive from World War II that they got to interview and hear it straight from them about the atrocities. I did the best I could to teach my children. Unfortunately one of them is completely woke and brainwashed and denies everything now. The colleges are a powerful force for brainwashing.

You were taught about it if you were older. But we just called the whole thing, "World War Two". There were so many bad things that happened. We talked about the concentration camps, and what happened there. But we spoke of it as a whole, a part of the terrible things that happened world wide. My Grandfather fought in that war. I grew up knowing people who were half Jewish. They were in the underground in Germany. So, it's not so long ago, or far away. And the disease is still with us.
