Etinosa Idemudia revealed she turned to cosmetic surgery after years of body-shaming struggles.
The Nollywood actress said PCOS contributed to her weight, but constant bullying influenced her decision.
Nollywood actress and filmmaker Etinosa Idemudia has opened up about the personal struggles that led her to undergo cosmetic surgery.
The mother of one explained that her decision was shaped by years of bullying and ridicule directed at her body, particularly her stomach. She revealed that much of her weight gain was due to polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), a condition many people were unaware of, but the constant taunts eventually pushed her toward surgery.
“I have been constantly bullied and mocked for my stomach. It affected me, but I tried to stay positive. My fat is largely caused by PCOS, but many people don’t know. We should all be kind to one another because everyone is dealing with something,” she said.
Etinosa disclosed that after finding Heritage Hospital online and receiving reassuring consultations with its doctors, she finally felt confident enough to proceed with the procedure.
” I found Heritage Hospital online, and after consultation, their doctors addressed all my fears and concerns. For the first time, I felt I could trust a clinic.”
Beyond health and confidence, she admitted that her career in the entertainment industry also played a role in the choice, noting the importance of physical appearance.
“Looking good is part of the job. My decision came from the need to look my age. Sometimes, fat makes you look older,” she added.
