“She has severe fibroids,” the source tells In Touch, exclusively, of the benign tumors of muscular and fibrous tissue that grow in the uterine wall. “She’s been warned in the past they could eventually result in surgery to remove her uterus. Fibroids can cause you severe pain and lead to complications such as anemia and blood loss. They cause her such severe pain and cramping, sometimes she just wants to stay in bed.”
