La Derecha Diario Tamara Báez shared how she copes with her illness after the revealing diagnosis
The influencer shared details for the first time about the diagnosis she has had since the birth of her daughter Jamaica
Tamara Báez, known for her active presence on social media and for having been the partner of singer L-Gante, recently surprised her followers by sharing a lesser-known aspect of her life: her struggle with hypothyroidism. Stepping away for a moment from her usual content related to fashion and her personal life, the influencer decided to open up to her followers about the disorder she has faced for more than two years.
The topic came to light through a Q&A session in her Instagram stories. It was then that a follower directly asked her how she was coping with this illness. Far from avoiding the question, Báez replied honestly: "I've been on medication for two months and for life, I have no other choice". She also emphasized that she has already started to notice improvements: "I already feel my face is much less swollen", she said, pointing out the first positive effects of the treatment.
Hypothyroidism is a common hormonal disorder, especially among young women, but it is often overlooked or diagnosed late. In this regard, Tamara shared that her diagnosis came shortly after the birth of her daughter Jamaica, the result of her relationship with the cumbia 420 artist. According to her account, it was during the postpartum period that she began to notice symptoms that led her to undergo medical tests.
Following her testimony, hundreds of users felt identified. One follower even wrote to her: "The hardest part of living with hypothyroidism is the mood swings, nobody understands us". Tamara did not hesitate to respond: "I swear", showing empathy and validating the emotional distress that many people with this illness experience daily.
What is hypothyroidism, the illness Tamara Báez has?
Hypothyroidism is a hormonal disorder that occurs when the thyroid gland doesn't produce enough hormones to properly regulate the body's metabolism. This dysfunction can cause symptoms such as fatigue, weight gain, facial swelling, hair loss, dry skin, sensitivity to cold, and mood changes, among others.
It is a chronic condition that, in most cases, requires lifelong treatment with specific medication. Although it can appear at any age, it is especially common in young women and is often detected after significant hormonal changes, such as pregnancy.
