Daisy Edgar-Jones is having a major Hollywood moment — but behind the scenes, she says she spent years dealing with a painful health struggle she couldn’t explain.

The 27-year-old actress, best known for her breakout role in Normal People and more recently Twisters, revealed she lived with endometriosis for three years before getting a diagnosis that finally made everything click.

“I have endometriosis, so my hormones are kind of all over the place,” Edgar-Jones said while opening up about the condition in a video appearance.

Edgar-Jones described dealing with intense period pain long before she knew what was causing it.

“For so long, I had such painful periods and really volatile skin,” she said, explaining that the symptoms didn’t feel random — but they also didn’t come with clear answers.

She also spoke candidly about how acne affected her confidence growing up.

“I had extremely bad acne for most of my teenage years,” she said. “When I had terrible acne, it was all I could see when I looked in the mirror.”

Edgar-Jones said she was diagnosed around age 24 — and felt relieved to finally understand what her body had been trying to tell her.

“I was definitely relieved to find out why I was going through it,” she shared.

While endometriosis doesn’t have a cure, Edgar-Jones said she’s found small ways to cope with the hormonal ups and downs over time — especially when it comes to skincare and lifestyle habits.

“I’ve found over the years skincare that really works for me,” she explained, adding that hydration and clean eating can make a difference for her.

She also said she tries to cut back on dairy when she can, because it seems to help.

Edgar-Jones didn’t just share her experience — she also had advice for anyone feeling defined by their skin.

She admitted that when she was younger, acne felt like the only thing people could see. But looking back, she realized that wasn’t true.

“I know it’s all you can see, but it’s not what everyone else can see,” she said, adding that confidence can change how you carry yourself — and how others see you.

Endometriosis is a chronic condition where tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside the uterus, often causing inflammation, scarring, and severe pain. It’s widely believed to affect about 1 in 10 women of reproductive age.

Fans praised Edgar-Jones for speaking openly — especially because many people spend years searching for a diagnosis, feeling dismissed, or assuming their pain is “normal.”

Edgar-Jones first broke through with Normal People, earning major award nominations and quickly becoming one of the most in-demand young actresses in the business.

Since then, she’s starred in Where the Crawdads Sing, stepped into blockbuster territory with Twisters, and landed on fashion-world radars, too.

She’s also spoken about her early training, including time with the National Youth Theatre, and has been linked to photographer Ben Seed. She’s believed to be based in London.

Now, as her career keeps climbing, Edgar-Jones is making it clear: the spotlight may show the glamour — but it doesn’t always show what someone is enduring to get there.
