Lupita Nyong'o questioned what she did "wrong" when she was told she had fibroids, which left her feeling "shame".
The Wild Robot star, 43, was diagnosed with the condition - which sees non-cancerous growths developing in or around the uterus and can cause symptoms including long and heavy periods, and pain in the pelvis, back, and leg - 11 years ago, and she initially wondered why she hadn't "protected" her body.
