Hailey Bieber has courageously spoken out about her current struggle with ovarian cysts, sharing her story on social media once more. On Monday, the founder of Rhode posted a raw selfie on her Instagram Stories, informing that she is dealing with two ovarian cysts at the moment. In the photo, Hailey is reclining on a couch, her stomach clearly distended, with the caption: “Currently have 2 ovarian cysts. If you battle ovarian cysts, I’m right there with ya!”
Only 27, the model didn’t elaborate much but suggested that this condition has been physically and emotionally exhausting for her. This isn’t the first time Hailey has brought attention to this topic; previously, in November 2022, she posted a similar photo of her belly explaining she wasn’t pregnant but was experiencing a “cyst the size of an apple.”
Pain, Bloating, and Emotional Toll
Although Hailey does not have PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome) or endometriosis, she confessed to having ovarian cysts “a few times.” She characterized the pain as uncomfortable, making her feel sore, bloated, nauseous, crampy, and emotional. She included a touch of solidarity, stating, “I’m sure a lot of you can overly relate and understand. We got this.”

Per the National Institutes of Health (NIH), ovarian cysts are fluid-filled sacs on the ovaries that may lead to pelvic pain, bloating, and the need to urinate frequently, among other symptoms.
Hailey has also experienced severe health issues, such as a mini-stroke in March 2022. Her husband, Justin Bieber, called that period “really scary,” but showed his belief, stating, “But I know God has her in His hands.” The couple is still enjoying life as new parents to their baby boy Jack, who has recently begun crawling.
