“I CAN’T BE A MOM ANYMORE” – Tanya Bardsley’s words leave the entire Loose Women backstage speechless – Revealing the heartbreaking pain of the cruel disease t0rmenting her Every day!
Tanya Bardsley opened up about her health battle which was ‘more agonising than labour’ on Loose Women.
The Real Housewives Of Cheshire star, 44, featured alongside her mum Julie on Monday’s instalment of the ITV show.
During the conversation with panellists Ruth Langsford, Sue Cleaver, Denise Welch and Brenda Edwards she discussed her struggles with adenomyosis.
Adenomyosis is a painful condition where tissue grows into the muscular wall of the uterus, often causing intense pain and heavy bleeding that disrupts daily life.
‘I’d been struggling with ADHD and just sort of got to grips with that and the peri-menopause hit me, and then the periods were getting worse and worse and I just thought surely this can’t just be peri-menopause,’ Tanya said.

She recalled: ‘It was like I was in labour, I was panting in pain.’
The model was eventually diagnosed with the painful condition and recalled how it was ‘worse than labour but just constant’.
Adenomyosis impacted lots of aspects of her life including her mood, ‘I missed the old me, I was quite easy going,’ she reflected.
The star also shared how she is going to have a hysterectomy.
She previously revealed she once feared her husband Phil would leave her due to the toll her ‘horrific’ health condition had taken on their relationship.
In a candid interview, Tanya shared that the condition has left her in constant agony and triggered a severe hormonal ‘nightmare’.
As a result, it’s taken a toll on her 11-year marriage to the former Sunderland footballer, with Tanya admitting there were moments she ‘couldn’t stand to be around him.’
Praising Phil for sticking by her, she told The Sun: ‘That shows what kind of man he is because some days I just don’t even want to hang around with myself.’

Describing how her condition affects her, she explained: ‘It’s like something has taken over your body and you can’t control it. I am like an ogre stomping around.
‘The rage just comes up inside of me and takes over. I’m horrible to be around, but obviously my oestrogen is low and the ogre is out.’
Tanya said it like like going from being terrified of losing your partner and family to suddenly feeling so angry you don’t care about anything or anyone – and admitted it’s a horrible place to be.
In a bid to finally get relief, Tanya revealed she’s preparing to undergo a hysterectomy in hopes of fixing the condition once and for all.
