"Not A Baby": Hailey Bieber Shares Her Struggle With An Ovarian Cyst That's "The Size Of An Apple"

Taking to Instagram, Hailey Bieber shared a photo of herself with a protruding belly and clarified that it was not a baby bump.

Hailey Bieber recently opened up about having an ovarian cyst that she said is "the size of an apple". Taking to Instagram, the American model shared a photo of herself with a protruding belly and clarified that it was not a baby bump. 

"I have a cyst on my ovary the size of an apple," the 26-year-old wrote in the now-unavailable post, adding that neither does she suffer from ovarian conditions such as endometriosis or Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), "but I have gotten an ovarian cyst a few times and it's never fun". 

"It's painful and ache-y and makes me feel nauseous and bloated and crampy and emotional," the US model said. "Anyways...I'm sure a lot of you can overly relate and understand. We got this," she added. 

According to the BBC, ovarian cysts are fluid-filled sac that develops on an ovary. They are very common, and while most do not cause symptoms, they can be very painful.
