Zainab Balogun-Nwachukwu has opened up about her battle with stage 4 endometriosis.
The media personality, who revealed last year that she underwent surgery, has now disclosed why.
She explained that she suffered 20-something years of excruciating pain during her monthly period, like someone was taking a barbed wire to her insides and twisting it continuously for days.
After she was diagnosed, she had to undergo surgery and said in a video that she has been taking injections every three months to simulate menopause in her.
She explained that this treatment has caused her to lose her hair, alongside other side effects.
She encouraged women who experience excruciating pain during their period to see a gynaecologist that cares.
