Gal Gadot Reveals Life-Threatening Brain Clots During Pregnancy

The actress shares her harrowing experience of discovering three brain clots while pregnant, emphasizing the importance of self-advocacy in healthcare.

Gal Gadot experienced severe headaches for three weeks during her fourth pregnancy, which were initially misdiagnosed as migraines or hormonal changes.
After her mother urged her to get an MRI, doctors discovered three brain clots, leading to an emergency thrombectomy and early delivery of her baby.
The condition, known as cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT), is rare and can cause life-threatening complications if untreated.
Gadot credits her medical team for saving her life and stresses the importance of advocating for one's health and seeking thorough medical evaluations for persistent symptoms.
The actress hopes sharing her experience will raise awareness and help others recognize and address similar health issues early.
