Chrissy
Teigen
took
to
her
Twitter
and
revealed
to
her
fans
that
she
underwent
surgery
to
treat
endometriosis.
According
to
experts,
the
condition
causes
uterine-like
tissue
to
grow
outside
of
the
uterus,
resulting
in
painful
period
cramps,
spotting
and
other
symptoms.
Teigen
shared
a
video
of
her
stomach
moving,
reportedly
due
to
cramps.
In
the
tweet,
she
also
revealed
that
her
son
would
have
been
born
this
week.
Back
in
September
2020,
Chrissy
suffered
from
pregnancy
loss
and
was
hospitalized
due
to
excessive
bleeding,
she
wrote,
"my
little
jack
would
have
been
born
this
week
so
I'm
a
bit
off.
I
truly
feel
kicks
in
my
belly,
but
it's
not
phantom.
I
have
surgery
for
endometriosis
tomorrow...but
the
period
feeling
this
month
is
exactly
like
baby
kicks.
sigh."
In
another
tweet,
she
wrote,
"Took
at
this
Weary
face
I'll
pretend
it's
him
saying
hi
-
it
never
stops." According
to
Jessica
Shepherd,
MD,
an
OB-GYN
in
Texas,
severe
endometriosis
cramps
typically
feel
like
tugging,
twisting,
or
pulling,
although
every
patient's
description
of
their
pain
is
subjective,
reported
Insider.
Soon
after,
she
shared
an
update
post
with
a
video
after
coming
out
of
the
surgery,
"an
update:
holy
shit
it's
a
no
on
the
soup
but
a
go
on
Curb."
Chrissy
also
talked
about
her
other
kids
in
the
house
who
were
playing
around
after
she
had
reached
home
and
said,
"I
know
kids
are
extremely
antsy
beings
normally
but
they
absolutely
absolutely
flail,
high
kick
and
tornado
more
when
you
tell
them
to
be
careful
around
your
healing
body??
they
feel
the
calm
energy
and
they
MUST
fuckin
break
it
STAT!"
Reports
have
revealed
that
endometriosis
affects
one
out
of
every
10
women
of
reproductive
age,
or
roughly
176
million
women
worldwide.
It's
most
commonly
diagnosed
in
women
in
their
30s
and
40s.
Chrissy,
this
week
was
facing
backlash
from
fans
after
she
tweeted
about
ordering
$13000
USD
wine,
claiming
that
it
was
'not
relatable'.
