The popular YouTuber and comedian Lilly Singh on Wednesday said she was hospitalized with ovarian cysts in an Instagram post.
The post, which has since garnered over 260,000 likes, said that both of her ovaries have cysts and that "it hurts and I'm tired."
Singh attached a video of her lying in a hospital bed and jokingly rolling her eyes while Silk Sonic's "Smoking Out The Window" played in the background.
Singh, who started her YouTube channel in 2010, has over 14 million subscribers and garnered 3 billion views, where she is known for making humorous skits. She is also releasing an advice book, "Be a Triangle," in April.
Ovarian cysts are "fluid-filled sacs" that can appear on the surface of or inside an ovary, according to The Mayo Clinic. Most women get them without any harm and they often go away on their own, but according to The Mayo Clinic, they can sometimes inflict serious symptoms, including sharp pelvic discomfort and bloating.
Singh's Instagram post drew an outpouring of support, including from other celebrities.
The television personality Howie Mandel commented that he was "here if you need anything," while the Instagram influencer Brittany Furlan Lee said she was "sending love" and jokingly called her a "Cyster."
Singh did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment.
