In a recent episode of Season 28 of The Bachelor, contestant Lexi Young opened up about her journey with endometriosis and undergoing egg retrieval surgery less than two weeks before meeting Bachelor Joey Graziadei. Lexi, who has been diagnosed with stage 5 endometriosis, shared her experiences and struggles while filming the reality show.
Lexi revealed that she had heavy bleeding and issues with ovarian cysts while on the show. She also expressed concerns about her appearance and the judgment she might face due to weight gain as a result of the surgery. Despite feeling swollen and puffy, Lexi decided to embrace her journey of freezing her eggs at the age of 30 as an empowering act. She acknowledged that if someone didn't want her in that state, she wouldn't want to marry him either.
