 4 Other Celebs Who Haven’t Shied Away From Talking About Their Health Conditions

Comedian Lilly Singh came clean about her diagnosis of cysts in both her ovaries earlier this year. The sharp pain compelled her family to take her to the emergency room immediately where she underwent surgery for removing the cysts. She had posted a picture of herself from the emergency room of the hospital where she was admitted after undergoing the surgery. 

2. Sonam Kapoor Ahuja

Sonam had divulged her struggles with PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome) way back in 2020, at a time India wasn’t as comfortable with talking about it as it is a couple of years later. No wonder, her first educational video about the health condition on Instagram had garnered a zillion views. She had talked about how it took years for her to discover the diet, workout, and lifestyle that keep her PCOS symptoms under control after having experimented with various hacks to manage the health condition. 

3. Harnaaz Sandhu

Miss Universe 2022, Harnaaz Sandhu, frequently talks about her struggles with incurable Celiac Disease. It makes her weight fluctuate drastically often, which is a challenge as she is an integral part of the entertainment industry. Being a gluten-sensitive enteropathy, this autoimmune condition occurs when the immune system of the body attacks its own small intestine if gluten-rich foods are consumed. Eating gluten, in such cases, has long-term repercussions on health.

A renowned fashion designer and one of the leading protagonists of the OTT show Masaba Masaba, Masaba revealed her fight against PCOS in June 2021.
