Lorraine Kelly reveals life-changing impact of having her ovaries removed as she returns to ITV after weeks off screen with huge health update
Lorraine Kelly shared a huge health update as she finally returned to ITV on Monday morning after weeks off screen - and revealed a life-changing impact after having her ovaries removed.
The 65-year-old revealed that she underwent preventative keyhole surgery to remove her fallopian tubes and ovaries earlier this month, and has been off our screens recovering.
Today (Monday 19 May), Lorraine returned to her hosting role on ITV's Lorraine, but before presenting the programme, she appeared on ITV's Good Morning Britain to open up about how she's feeling.
Lorraine, who was in hospital for one night and had two weeks of recovery, explained that she had a burst cyst on a flight coming back from India.
She had a scan and her doctor noticed something on her other cyst, so they removed it to be safe.
GMB presenter Susanna pointed out that it has reduced the risk of cancer, to which Lorraine said: It's gone! I have to take tiny amounts of testosterone.'
