Hashimoto’s disease is an autoimmune disorder that affects the thyroid gland. On the other hand, endometriosis, as per Mayo Clinic, is a condition in which “tissue that is similar to the inner lining of the uterus grows outside the uterus,” affecting the ovaries, fallopian tubes and the tissue lining the pelvis.
Madrigal first revealed being diagnosed with Hashimoto’s disease in 2018. At the time, the former actress said she also developed goiter or enlarged thyroid.
Madrigal got married to her non-showbiz husband Kevin Neal in August 2024. A month after their wedding, the actress expressed hopes of having another child soon.
Madrigal has a daughter named Anika whom she shares with her former husband Troy Woolfolk. /ra
