After a heartwarming Instagram post on body shaming, actress Shruti Haasan has now opened up about what causes her weight to fluctuate and why she chose to get lip fillers. The actor has revealed she suffers from PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome) and dysmenorrhea and got lip fillers after being told that she didn’t "look Indian enough" for films.

In an interview with Mumbai Mirror, Shruti said, "There are a lot of actors who will never admit they have stuff done to their faces, but I am not one of them. I don’t want young girls to think that I woke up looking like this. Being a child of famous people, I grew up in the public eye. Denying things like this seems silly to me. I had a normal nose but by the time I grew up, it was crooked after two injuries. I never liked the way it looked, and breathing didn’t feel good."

She also confessing getting lip fillers and said, "I didn’t like how thin my lips were. There was a time when I went crazy with lip fillers. It took me a couple of years of experimenting, but now I have come back a lot closer to my natural look." She also claimed that she knew everyone who was getting lip fillers in Bollywood but they would say it was a "lip balm or lip rubbing lotion".

Talking about her struggle with PCOS and dysmenorrhea, "It makes every menstrual cycle painful for me. We can’t talk about it, because of the stigma attached to it and lack of awareness. There are many women like me, grappling with mood swings, weight gain, excess hair, hair loss, pimples and a lot more, that comes with the territory. Every month is a battle," she said.
