Gemma’s weight loss mission

Gemma has struggled with her weight ever since she was told she had polycystic ovary syndrome.

However, she has since been reassured her weight loss may increase her chances of conceiving.

Gemma said she’s got a “fabulous doctor” and she can “definitely have a child” as she’s carrying less weight.

The star said her doctor “gave me the confidence not to panic about it”.

Gemma insisted she’s “in a much better head space” and “it is easy to yo-yo when your life is all over the place”.

Speaking on her PCOS, Gemma added that she was “always very slim” but then she “started piling on the weight”.

PCOS struggles

Last week, Gemma opened up to her Instagram followers on the condition, which can cause irregular periods and difficulty getting pregnant.

Sharing a picture from her 20s, she wrote: “As you can see guys when I was in my 20s I was very slim then I was told I had PCOS and it’s been a struggle ever since.

“However I make the most of myself and remain positive because it’s what in your heart counts the most.”
