Media personality Njambi Koikai has been a vocal advocate for endometriosis awareness, sharing her personal struggles with the condition. In a recent statement, she clarified the reason behind her constant face mask.
Published on November 20, 2019, Njambi explained that she wears the mask to protect her lungs, which were affected by her endometriosis. She emphasized that being discharged from the hospital does not mean she has fully recovered and that she needs to take extra care of her health.
She proudly wears the mask, associating it with the advice given to her by a close friend. Njambi also acknowledged that she has made significant progress since her discharge and remains grateful to God for her recovery.
Her statement comes as a response to her fans' curiosity about the mask, which has become a familiar sight in her social media posts. Njambi notes that she is just one of many women who are struggling with endometriosis and other menstrual-related conditions.
She called upon all victims of the condition to share their stories and connect with her. Njambi is hosting a lunch event for 20 endometriosis warriors in December, where they can share their experiences and find support.
