Actress and host Pauleen Luna-Sotto shared on her Instagram account that she is currently suffering from a hormonal disorder called Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
PCOS is a health condition among women of reproductive age. It causes hormonal imbalances, weight gain, irregular menstrual period, and difficulty getting pregnant.
According to Pauleen, she has been dealing with it for many months now and that could also be a reason why she is gaining excess weight.
But because of her effort in her fitness journey, she said that she feels like coming back to a more healthy state even though she progresses slowly.
With proper food intake and exercise like pilates, walking and spinning, Pauleen really hopes that she would become better adding that PCOS is not a joke.
Other than Pauleen, actresses like Assunta De Rossi and Mariel Rodriguez also have PCOS. This can be treated with hormonal therapy, proper diet, and exercise.
