Keke Palmer Opens up About Struggles
With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome.
Palmer took to Instagram on
Dec. 1 to reveal her ongoing battle
with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
Until recently, Palmer hadn’t known
that PCOS had been attacking her
“from the inside out [her] entire life.”.
She had constantly struggled
with acne and didn’t understand
why it was always “so bad”
no matter what she did. .
I tried EVERYTHING. I did Accutane
TWICE. People say drink water, have
a better diet, but I did all that, I ate all the
“right” things, my blood tests were fine, Keke Palmer, via Instagram.
It was only when she “did the research” herself
that she was able to get the correct diagnosis. .
It took ME taking a personal look into
my family that has a history of diabetes
and obesity, to understand what was
ACTUALLY happening with me. , Keke Palmer, via Instagram.
Palmer ended her post with a
message of encouragement.
To all the people struggling with this please
know you’re not alone and that you are still
so f------ fine … I’m not afraid to show myself
to the world and you shouldn’t be either, Keke Palmer, via Instagram.
