According to studies, an estimate of five to ten percent of women of childbearing age suffers similarly to King. Fans were wondering when she announced the two losses before what her illness is. It turns out it was a hormonal disorder called Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
PCOS occurs in a female whose ovaries have various follicles and cannot release eggs regularly. The exact cause is unknown but bearing a child is hard work for a woman who has it. That’s the reason why the Grammy-nominated singer cried happily about this pregnancy.
