Halsey completed her IG story post by writing #endowarrior across the top of the photo. The "Bad At Love" singer has been extremely open about her struggles with the painful disorder. She revealed that she “braved multiple terrifying surgeries” in a since-deleted Instagram post in January of 2017.
“The most important of which being the surgery that would hopefully treat my endometriosis. For those of you who have followed this battle of mine or who may suffer with it yourself, you know the extremes to which it can be mentally exhausting and physically painful," Halsey wrote at the time.
Endometriosis is when tissue, that is similar to that found inside the uterus, grows outside the uterus. It can affect ovaries, fallopian tubes, and the tissue lining your pelvis. The disorder can lead to infertility and extreme pain.

The star took to Twitter in 2019 to tell her followers that she underwent a total of four surgeries. She revealed that she suffered three miscarriages and tremendous emotional and physical pain while dealing with the chronic disorder.
Later that year, she told Rolling Stone Magazine that the doctors said she may not have to freeze her eggs because of how successful the surgeries were.
"I was like, 'Wait, what did you just say? Did you just say I can have kids?'" she told RS. "It was like the reverse of finding out you have a terminal illness. I called my mom, crying."
