Hailey Bieber has spoken out about her health journey.
In recent years, the catwalk star has spoken about her experiences with ovarian cysts.
In April this year, she uploaded a selfie of herself to her Instagram and wrote: “Currently have two ovarian cysts.”
“If you’re dealing with ovarian cysts, I’m here for you!” she added.
Three years earlier, she shared another photo of her stomach, explaining: “I have a cyst on my ovary the size of an apple.”
She continued: “I don’t have endometriosis or PCOS, but I have developed an ovarian cyst a few times, and that’s never fun.”
“It’s painful and painful and I feel nauseous, bloated, crampy and emotional.” She also added a sentence to make her followers aware that her eviction was categorically “not a baby.”
An ovarian cyst is a fluid-filled sac that develops on or in an ovary. Most ovarian cysts are benign (non-cancerous) and often occur as part of the normal menstrual cycle, also called functional cysts.
These usually disappear on their own without treatment. However, some cysts can grow larger and even cause complications.
Symptoms
Many ovarian cysts are asymptomatic and discovered accidentally. When symptoms occur, they may include:
- Pain in the lower abdomen or pelvis (dull or sharp)
- Bloating or a feeling of fullness
- Pain during menstruation or sexual intercourse
- Changes in the menstrual cycle
- Frequent urination (due to pressure on the bladder)
Severe symptoms, such as sudden severe pain, nausea, vomiting, or dizziness, may indicate complications such as cyst rupture or ovarian torsion, which require urgent medical attention.
Ovarian cysts are common and usually harmless, but persistent or symptomatic cases require medical attention. Early diagnosis and appropriate management help prevent complications and ensure reproductive health.
