Story summary

Porsha Williams, a star of "Real Housewives of Atlanta", recently underwent an emergency partial hysterectomy due to severe uterine fibroids. Doctors discovered over 21 fibroids in her uterus, with one measuring the size of a cantaloupe. The surgery was necessary after previous treatments failed and her condition worsened, leading to symptoms like migraines and fatigue. Williams revealed during an interview on CBS Mornings that she first noticed issues when dealing with long menstrual cycles and thought they might be related to perimenopause until the fibroids were discovered. Her hysterectomy occurred in May 2023 and has impacted her fertility, though she expressed relief it "saved her life."
