Alex Gonzaga reveals body now ready for pregnancy after health struggles

Actress and vlogger Alex Gonzaga recently shared that her body is now in good condition to conceive, with her latest health tests showing promising results. Gonzaga revealed that she is physically prepared for pregnancy, saying in an ABS-CBN News report, “My last test, positive na po ‘yung katawan ko so any time puwede na po tayong mabuntis.”

The actress admitted that her journey toward pregnancy had been challenging due to her immune system. “One of the reasons kaya hirap akong mabuntis is masyadong mataas ang immune system ko,” she explained, adding that her doctor identified issues with her thyroglobulin.

Gonzaga also opened up about undergoing fertility treatments, including IVF and LIT (lymphocyte immunization therapy), where her body initially struggled to recognize pregnancy.

Beyond her personal journey, Gonzaga advocated for sensitivity when discussing women’s fertility. She emphasized the need to avoid using terms like “baog” (infertile), sharing, “We have to be careful na gamitin ‘yung words na ‘yun sa mga kababaihan kasi maraming inner struggles ang mga babae na hindi natin alam.”

She disclosed that she took legal action against someone who used the term “baog” in a comment, later forgiving them after they issued an apology.

Amid her busy schedule, Gonzaga draws strength from her husband, Mikee Morada, and her parents, Bonoy and Pinty. She recently signed an endorsement deal with Chef Aybs’ Paragis Tea, expressing pride in supporting a Filipino brand.

Reflecting on her health, she noted, “After nung pandemic, doon natin na-realize talaga kung gaano ka-importante ang health.”
