Aussie Olympic champ Titmus opens up on ‘scary’ health drama
The 23-year-old is a four time world champion and two-time Olympic gold medallist, and will hope to add to the latter tally at the Paris Games next year.
“However, it was something else that the doctors picked up on that made everything else seem irrelevant.“For anyone that knows me, they’d know I’d give up anything in the world to be a mother, it’s my biggest dream … so this was a scary time for me. Of course in these moments you think of the worst case scenario, and I was petrified of potentially losing the ovary or there being implications that could affect me and my desire to have children one day.
“Being an athlete is tough. Being a woman is tough. In the past month I’ve learnt more about my body and what it is capable of,” Titmus added.
