Halsey’s 2015 miscarriage also helped inform her decision to freeze her eggs. She recalled at the time, “I put my foot down and I got really aggressive about seeking treatment.”
“Reproductive illness is so frustrating because it can really make you feel like less of a woman,” Halsey continued. “There’s a lot of times when you’re sitting at home and you just feel so terrible about yourself. You’re sick, you don’t feel sexy, you don’t feel proud, you don’t feel like there’s much hope. And so taking these measures, so that hopefully I can have a bright future and achieve the things that I want to achieve by doing the ovarian reserve is really important.”
She later told The Guardian in March 2020 that having endometriosis made her feel “inadequate.”
“Here I am achieving this out-of-control life, and I can’t do the one thing I’m biologically put on this earth to do,” she reflected. “Then I have to go onstage and be this sex symbol of femininity and empowerment? It is demoralizing.”
Nonetheless, she said doctors were hopeful she’d be able to conceive. The star gushed, “That’s a miracle.”
