A 63-YEAR-OLD woman’s tongue became “pregnant” after sperm from a raw squid she was eating ended up in her mouth, according to a medical journal.

The woman, from South Korea, was left in severe pain after the squid injected sperm into the tissues of her mouth and she was rushed to hospital.

Doctors took a look inside her mouth and made the stomach-churning discovery of "12 small, white spindle-shaped, bug-like" sperm bags embedded in her tongue and gums.

The foreign bodies were identified as squid spermatophores, which are sperm-containing capsules and the bizarre case has been published in the Journal of Parasitology.

They belonged to a Japanese flying squid known as Todarodes pacificus.

The journal reports she had not removed the internal organs of the squid, and then compounded the problem by parboiling it for a few seconds before eating it.

That means the spermatophores were alive and well.

Researchers for the study wrote: “As soon as she put a piece into her mouth, she felt like many 'bugs' were biting her oral mucosa.

“She experienced severe sharp pain and spat out the entire portion without swallowing.

“Despite that, she could feel many small squirming white bug-like organisms penetrating her oral mucosa.”

They went on to say they are not sure how the spermatophores managed to implant themselves into the woman’s mouth.

There are other horrors reported too. Pathology International reported a 21-year-old Japanese woman felt a stinging sensation after eating the sexual organs of a raw squid.
