“I Was Told I Could Bleed to Death”: Venus Williams Opens Up About Her 30-Year Fibroids Journey
Venus Williams is known as one of the fiercest competitors in tennis history, but her biggest opponent wasn’t always across the net. In a deeply personal revelation, the seven-time Grand Slam champion has opened up about her decades-long battle with uterine fibroids — a condition that affects millions of women worldwide but is rarely discussed so openly.
Williams revealed that she had been silently living with fibroids for over 30 years, enduring heavy bleeding, fatigue, and pain while continuing to perform at the highest level of professional tennis.
