Michelle Madrigal says she feels healthier after breast implant removal
Michelle Madrigal detailed her breast explant experience on her latest vlog, saying she feels so much healthier now that she had her implants removed.
"It's been six months since I removed these toxic bad boys... I feel perfectly fine," Michelle said in the video.
According to the fitness enthusiast, now that she's had them removed, she hasn't felt "breast implant illness" symptoms — like chronic fatigue, random sharp chest pains, and unexplainable itchiness on her breast area — that she would often feel when she still had them.
"Even though I was getting like 8-10 hours of sleep, I will still be tired the next day. And even after taking a nap, I'm always fatigued. I'm not sure what it was, but now I feel more energy. I barely take naps," she said.
She said she also felt random sharp pains on her chest.
"I would just feel random stabbing pain on my chest. At night, I would wake up and feel like someone's stabbing my breast. Super sakit. I don't feel that anymore since I had my implants removed," she shared.
Michelle is super happy that her skin has become better, too. "My skin has been perfect. When I removed the implants, my skin cleared out. Like I stopped breaking out," she said.
Michelle shared the reason why she had them: She was insecure and having full breasts was what's promoted as sexy in the media.
She then realized that she wanted to "live longer" and healthier with her husband and child which is why she had them removed.
Michelle revealed she had her breast implants removed last December in a vlog. — Jannielyn Ann Bigtas/LA, GMA News
