Health is a delicate and essential issue, as well as a right for all human beings. However, not everyone can access health or deeper examinations for external reasons such as cost, insurance, or available opportunities. There are also some stubborn people who put their health last. A combination of all these factors happened to a fitness trainer, a woman from Tennessee, who discovered she has a 48 cm ovarian cyst and wants to share her entire process on TikTok of her next steps.
On TikTok, megan_the_trainer_ focuses on working out, dieting, keeping her body healthy, and even participating in competitions like weightlifting. That is why it was strange to her that one day, she started to feel bloated and even gain weight, especially in her lower abdomen. Megan tried everything to lose that weight, but people noticed it more; some even thought she was pregnant. Megan believed that her physical change and other effects were due to another condition, so she brushed them off for four long years, mainly because the symptoms were so spaced out. She even went to the doctor a few times. Her body quickly changed utterly, and she gained a huge stomach, although the rest of her body was slim and muscular.
It was a couple of days ago that Megan’s followers started asking her to get a medical exam because her body and symptoms looked more like those of an ovarian cyst. The Tennessee fitness trainer had nothing to lose, so she went to the doctor again, which resulted in a diagnosis of a 48 cm ovarian cyst. In addition, Megan started making several compilation videos of how she got to that extreme.
I get it. Individually, none of these things would stick out to me too, especially if the instances were spaced out. Hindsight is 20/20!

For now, Megan is uploading more TikToks to raise awareness about being more attentive to our health, even when we feel well. She also posts many updates on what she will do next regarding her cyst.
