Anna Woolhouse has revealed that she has been able to return to swimming following a second laparoscopic surgery for her endometriosis. The Sky Sports presenter is well-known for her

coverage on the broadcaster's boxing and darts events, as she is often in front of the microphone when British fighter Anthony Joshua takes to the ring. However, some fans may not be

aware that Woolhouse was given the "heartbreaking" news back in 2017 that she had the long-term condition. Endometriosis is something that affects those born with a female

reproductive system, and occurs when tissue similar to the lining of the womb grows in places it doesn't normally appear in - such as the ovaries and fallopian tubes. The condition can

debilitating" it can be to live with endometriosis, and that the disease isn't discussed enough for people to understand. On April 2, Woolhouse shared a snap of herself in a

hospital gown alongside her post-surgery marks on her stomach with the caption: "The comeback is always greater than the setback. It's been quite the ride the past seven days. Last

week I had my second laparoscopic surgery for endometriosis in seven years, it was done by the surgeon controlling a robot which blows my mind (avoid slide two if you're squeamish!).

"It ended up being a slightly chunkier op than I'd bargained for but all OK in the end. March was endometriosis awareness month, I know I'm a couple of days late, but

it's important to still shine a light on condition that still isn't known or spoken about nearly enough. "It is a condition that affects 1 in 10 women and for so many even

getting a diagnosis is a long, emotional and painful process and can be incredibly debilitating to live with. I was first diagnosed back in 2017 after years of endless GP appointments.

"I had my first surgery in 2018 and for a couple of years my symptoms did improve, but alas it came back and in recent years has resulted in some heartbreaking blows and ultimately

meant having another surgery, really hoping this will be it." However, it seems that things are looking up for the sports presenter, as she recently shared more pictures on social media

that revealed she was able to get back into swimming following her surgery. Woolhouse said: "This fish is very happy to be back in the water. After not being able to do a great deal

the last few weeks today felt SO good to be back in the pool. "No big sessions yet and swimming/stationary bike are really all I can do atm, but one big thing I’ve taken away from not

being able to do a great deal post op is how much we can take for granted what a privilege it is being able to move our bodies. "I cannot wait to get stuck back into proper training and

hopefully tick off a couple of big challenges this summer. Weight/strength training is still a couple of weeks off for me but when I can get back into it I promise I will never moan about a

squat ever again."
