Travel with PCOS: Motivated by Sonam Kapoor, Resilience and Self-Love

Though sometimes regarded as a fashionista, Sonam Kapoor has always captivated viewers with her grace and appeal. Beneyond the gloss and beauty, though, is a story of human struggle and success. Sonam freely shared her early years’ battle with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), so underlining the challenges she encountered and the resilience she developed over time.

Teenagers struggling with hormonal problems

During her teenage years, when her PCOS struggle began, most young people are finding their identity and building self-confidence, Sonam said. At just sixteen years old, she started to notice changes in her body including typical but alarming PCOS symptoms including development of facial hair and unusual weight increase.

For Sonam especially, this proved challenging. “At that age, you should be most beautiful; I had to deal with a face full of hair,” she said. Negative comments from others and society’s definition of beauty compounded her issues.

The confidence in the weight of her words

Sonam said she had often heard nasty comments in which people reduced her identity to that of “Anil Kapoor’s daughter”. Her confidence suffered as much as her hormonal imbalance rather obviously did.

But a turning point came when her mother Sunita Kapoor showed her a picture of actress Kajol, a well-known star noted for valuing her natural beauty including her distinctive unibrow. This small but significant act motivated Sonam to see past social norms and value her uniqueness.

From Professional Peak to Personal Issues

Sonam struggled, but her will never wavelled. Her first job in films was as an assistant director for the much-loved Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Black, just 17. Two years later, Bhansali’s Saawariya debuted her acting and launched an incredible career.

Personal and professional spheres of development

Sonam worked straight with her. Married businessman Anand Ahuja in May 2018, she welcomed her son August 20, 2025. Juggling marriage, motherhood, and a demanding career, Sonam still exhorts women to embrace their actual selves.
