Supermodel Barbara Palvin was recently diagnosed with endometriosis.
“Hi guys, it’s been a while! Just a little update and a few thoughts for those out there who could relate to what I’m about to share,” Palvin, 31, wrote via Instagram on Sunday, August 17. “For some years now, I’ve been dealing with the difficulties that can come with my periods. Fatigue, severe pain, heavy and irregular flow, sleepless nights on the bathroom floor. I thought this was just how it works for me. But recently, I’ve been advised to seek out an endometriosis specialist to see whether my symptoms are caused by that.”
She added, “I’ve been going to checkups to my gynecologist every year, I thought if I had endometriosis, I would have known about it by now, but as it turns out, endometriosis can’t be diagnosed
