Katie Thurston Says She’s in Medically Induced Menopause in Cancer Update

Katie Thurston Updates Fans on Breast Cancer Battle, Enters Medically Induced Menopause

Katie Thurston is currently undergoing treatment for stage 4 breast cancer, which has led to her experiencing symptoms of menopause.

In a video shared on social media, the former reality TV star revealed that her cancer treatment has triggered hot flashes and forced her body into menopause.

Chemotherapy is known to cause early menopause in women, so it’s not surprising that Katie is facing this challenge as she fights her aggressive form of cancer.

The hot flashes have been affecting her sleep, and she is also dealing with dehydration due to her medications, which have caused severe chapping of her lips.

Thurston first announced her breast cancer diagnosis in February after getting engaged to comedian Jeff. Despite the health setback, the couple got married shortly after and are continuing to live life to the fullest amidst the challenges.
