MOLLY-MAE Hague has revealed she’s been diagnosed with endometriosis and will undergo surgery.
The Love Island star sought help after being left in “excruciating pain” while on her periods.
In her latest YouTube vlog, she explained: “I actually have got to have an operation for something that I want to tell you guys about. It’s kind of a good thing and it’s kind of a bad thing.
“I’ve told you guys for so long now that I suffer with excruciating periods and so many of you guys were commenting on my videos telling me to check for endometriosis.”
The condition sees tissue from inside the womb grow in places outside of like the ovaries and Fallopian tubes.
Molly needed a second opinion from a specialist after her GP failed to spot what was wrong.
On average, it takes seven and a half years from the onset of symptoms to get a correct diagnosis.
Molly said: “Straight away they said ‘You absolutely do have endometriosis, it’s clear as day’. So I guess that’s kind of a good thing because at least I know now what it is.
“It’s not a good thing that I have endometriosis, because obviously it can affect fertility and loads of other things, and you can never really cure it.”
