Nigerian actress, Dayo Amusa has opened up about the challenges she faced on her journey to motherhood, both physically and emotionally.
WITHIN NIGERIA reported that Dayo Amusa welcomed her child, Oluwafirewamiri, in the United States on 18th November 2024.
In a series of detailed posts on her Instagram account on Tuesday, December 31, just hours before the new year, the actress revealed how she overcame three miscarriages, personal setbacks, and a diagnosis of uterine myomatosis in 2015.
She recounted that following her diagnosis, some doctors advised her to have her womb removed due to recurring complications and debilitating menstrual pain.
Refusing to give up on her dream of motherhood, Amusa sought alternative treatments and eventually travelled to the United Kingdom, where she underwent surgery to remove the tumours.
She continued that in 2016, she discovered that one of her fallopian tubes was damaged, making natural conception nearly impossible.
The actress noted that the struggles persisted in 2019, as a failed IVF attempt and further heartbreak caused her relationship to collapse when her partner proposed having a child with someone else.
She revealed that these setbacks left her frustrated and depressed, causing her to withdraw from family, friends, and her career.
She credited her mother for recognising her deteriorating mental health and encouraging her to relocate to the United States in 2021 for a fresh start.
Reflecting on her journey, Amusa expressed gratitude to God and those who supported her during her trials.
