Inamin ni Priscilla na nainsulto siya sa espekulasyon ng iba na gumamit siya ng Ozempic para mabasan ang timbang.
Ayon sa healthline.com, ang ozempic ay isang prescription drug para sa mga taong may Type-2 diabetes, at isang epekto nito ay weight loss.
"Actually, I was offended in a sense that a lot of people assumed that I went to some doctor or that I did Ozempic. Everybody assumed that," pahayag ni Priscilla sa entertainment press na dumalo sa kanyang contract signing sa Viva Artists Agency.
"I had a condition called endometriosis and it’s super sakit," pagbabahagi pa niya.
Ang endometriosis, ayon sa mayoclinic.com, ay isang "painful condition" kunsaan may tumutubong lining sa labas ng uterus na hindi dapat nangyayari.
Kapag naapektuhan daw ang ovaries ay maaari ring may tumubong cysts.
Paliwanag pa ni Priscilla: "I tried different treatments. And one of the treatments I tried, it was [a] hormonal treatment which made me gain 30 to 40 pounds.
"And after trying different types of therapies, I have no choice because my case was extreme. The pain was excruciating. I cannot function, so I really need to go under the knife.
"And then, I did removed the cyst last April 2024."

Mula raw noon ay mas naging conscious si Priscilla sa kanyang kalusugan.
"When I went to that process, a lot of things crossed my mind coz I didn’t know what I had. What if I have cancer?
"I started to realize what I deserve, what I don’t deserve, what I want to do for the rest of my life.
"So as a woman, I started to say I need to take action of the things I am not happy with me and my life right now at his point onwards, because I don’t know what’s gonna happen in the future.”
Binigyan ni Priscilla ang sarili ng anim na buwan para mawala ang kanyang unwanted pounds.
Sumali raw siya sa mga online seminar at pinili niya ang mga pagkain na kakainin.
"I removed processed carbs, I removed the sugar, I removed any dairy so I removed all of them.
"What I need to do is I just remove all those things that cause inflammation in my body.
"I stick with natural diet or earth diet. Every day I eat the same thing over and over for six months.
"So I shed off 45 pounds in six months, plus three hours at the gym every day. No rest because I have a goal.
"That came out of a lot of discipline, hard work, and determination."
Nagtagumpay si Priscilla na magbawas ng timbang, at handang-handa nang maging aktibo sa showbiz.
