In this raw episode, I share the story of how trying for baby number two led me to a diagnosis I never expected: a 3cm growth-hormone–secreting brain tumour.
For years I blamed my irregular cycles, my swelling, my fatigue, my changing face, and my chaotic hormones on postpartum, stress, or “just being busy.”
But while trying to understand my fertility, a single blood test opened the door to a much bigger truth.
Inside this episode, I walk you through:
• the slow and subtle symptoms I ignored
• my PCOS misdiagnosis
• the blood test result that made me question everything
• how I pushed for further testing
• the shocking growth hormone level that changed my life
• the moment I heard the words “you have a 3cm tumour”
• my surgery and recovery
• and the terrifying postoperative bleed + call for an ambulance that followed
This is a story about intuition, self-advocacy, resilience, and learning to trust your body when something feels wrong, even if no one else sees it.
If you’re on a fertility journey, navigating hormonal chaos, or just want to hear the truth behind one of the wildest medical journeys I’ve ever lived through… this episode is for you 💖
