Bindi Irwin, the daughter of legendary environmentalist and TV personality Steve Irwin, has shared a heartbreaking health update. She’s been fighting an “invisible disease,” which she described as ‘inescapably painful.’
Bindi Irwin has shared a heartbreaking update about her health, and her words are touching people around the world. The 27-year-old has been fighting endometriosis for many years. Now, she is opening up about just how hard it has been.
In a recent Instagram message, Bindi revealed the truth about her struggle.
“In the last three years, I’ve had over 50 endometriosis lesions cut out of my body. A chocolate cyst that was adhering my ovary to my side was removed. An appendectomy and a hernia repair. I’ve felt indescribable, inescapable pain,” Bindi Irwin wrote.
She further explained that doctors had to remove a cyst, her appendix, and repair a hernia. But the hardest part has been the pain. For years, Bindi says no one understood what she was going through.
She shared how doctors told her it was just “part of being a woman,” and because of that, she went 10 years without a diagnosis.
