Bebe Rexha is a multi-platinum American singer and songwriter π©΅
In 2023, Rexha received criticism regarding her weight gain. In response, she said, "I went to the doctor last year - and a lot of women actually have this and they don't know about it - but they diagnosed [me] with PCOS." π©Ί
"It's one of the leading causes of why women gain weight. I literally jumped, like, 30 lbs., maybe a little bit more. But we gotta just be positive and just show people love." π«Ά
Since then, Rexha has opened up about her other symptoms, like irregular periods, acne and painful cysts. She spoke about a time a cyst burst - "I was in so much pain, the doctor thought it was appendicitis. It was so bad."
Rexha also shared that she is taking metformin to help curb PCOS symptoms, saying it's the "only thing that's gotten me back on, like, kind of track." βοΈ
We appreciate Bebe Rexha for speaking so candidly about her diagnosis, symptoms, and treatment!
