Popular Yoruba actress, Omotunde Ogundimu, has been diagnosed with fibroid.
Although she has not been acting for some time now, the mother of three needs about N500,000 to undergo the very necessary surgery to have the fibroids removed.
“I noticed it last year before my husband passed away. Anytime we had intercourse, I would always bleed. I took it for something else, so I didn’t really pay attention to it. But when he became sick and we couldn’t have intercourse any more, it (the bleeding) stopped. Then, I didn’t have time to study it at that period too," Omotunde said.
“But what I noticed is that my menstrual circle changed, so I would menstruate twice in a month with very heavy flow. So, at that time, I just felt it was one of the signs of menopause because I am way above 40. But last year, I had to go to the hospital to complain and the doctor said I had fibroid, even before the tests and scan were conducted. When the scan was done, it was discovered that the fibroid was fully grown in my womb,” she explained.
She said that she didn’t have that kind of money because she has been single-handedly taking care of her three children who are in school since the demise of her husband.
