Sophie captioned the footage, ‘So many women live not knowing they have endometriosis. If you have annoying cycles, you should ask your doctor.’
Sophie has not spoken on the record about the condition before, and there has been no further comment about her condition.
Endometriosis is a condition where cells similar to those that grow in the lining of the uterus grow outside of it, often causing intense pain.
More than 700,000 women are estimated to be living with endometriosis in Australia, according to the Department of Health‘s National Action Plan for Endometriosis.
