Daisy Edgar-Jones has opened up about the health struggles she faced as a teenager before learning she had Endometriosis.

The actress known for her role in Normal People said painful periods and severe acne made her teenage years particularly challenging.

Speaking in a video for Vogue published on March 3 Edgar-Jones described her skin during that time as “volatile” and extremely sensitive.

“For so long, I had such painful periods and really, you know, volatile skin. It was definitely a relief to find out why I was going through it,” she shared.

According to Edgar-Jones she focuses on drinking plenty of water, paying attention to her diet and avoiding dairy products.

Looking back on her teenage years Edgar-Jones encouraged others dealing with acne or similar struggles not to let those experiences define them.

“It was all I could see when I looked in the mirror, but when I see old photos, it’s funny how confidence and who you are on the inside really shows,” she said.

Her story has resonated with many fans as endometriosis is a condition that affects millions of women worldwide.
