Actress Etinosa Idemudia has spoken candidly about her experience with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) and the online trolling she has faced due to symptoms such as body fat and facial hair.
The actress, who recently underwent another surgery to reduce body fat, shared her story on Instagram, revealing how she learned to understand and manage her condition.
She wrote:
“A lady came to troll me, talking about visceral fat. I didn’t get angry — I googled it and found out it is linked to a female-targeted medical condition called PCOS.
I discussed with my gynaecologist how to manage this because PCOS has no cure; you can only manage its symptoms.
I’m writing this to every woman out there with PCOS to tell you that you are not alone. Even if it’s your husband mocking you or strangers online, you will overcome.
I carried my baby, and you will carry yours.
That facial hair or stubborn fat does not make you any less. You are beautiful, and you are enough.”
Etinosa’s post has resonated with many women who also live with PCOS, a hormonal disorder that affects millions worldwide and can cause irregular periods, excessive hair growth, acne, and weight gain.
