Bindi Irwin has revealed a heartbreaking health update after two major surgeries. The 27-year-old TV star has battled endometriosis for more than a decade, a condition that left her in constant pain.
“I felt hurt. I felt weak. I was told my pain was just part of being a woman,” Bindi shared with fans on Instagram. Doctors recently removed 51 lesions, a chocolate cyst, and her appendix. She also had surgery for a hernia caused during childbirth.

Despite her struggles, Bindi says she is finally healing. “I can function in everyday life without wanting to throw up or pass out. Slowly, slowly gaining my strength back,” she wrote.
The wildlife conservationist urged women not to feel ashamed of their symptoms. “It’s time to have open discussions and make change on a global scale,” she added.
Bindi, now a mother to four-year-old Grace, has inspired many with her honesty. Her courage highlights the need for awareness about endometriosis, a disease that affects millions worldwide.
