Covering Vogue Netherlands‘ Motherhood Issue, the Dutch supermodel spoke candidly about her journey, revealing she hopes her battle will inspire other women struggling to conceive. 

Romee said that complications from her PCOS, and a strict lifestyle, also meant the Victoria’s Secret model didn’t have a period for seven years. 

Polycystic ovary syndrome is a hormonal disorder causing enlarged ovaries with small cysts on the outer edges. Symptoms include menstrual irregularity, excess hair growth, acne, and obesity. 

Announcing the couple’s news and opening up on her condition back in May, Romee wrote on Instagram: ‘WE’RE HAVING A BABY. 2 years ago I got diagnosed with PCOS after not getting my period for 7 years.

‘I was devastated because being a mom and starting a family with @laurensvleeuwen is my biggest dream..

‘I was so scared that I would never be able to because I got told it was harder to get babies in a natural way.. 

‘I started to research PCOS and came to the conclusion that mine was not the typical pcos.. Mine was because of my body being in fight or flight mode.. which means my body was under constant stress.’  

Romee explained that constant jet-setting, working out every day and eating ‘restricting foods’ as a model had taken its toll because she had ‘pressured my body too much’.

She continued: ‘I never felt mentally super stressed so it was hard te understand this, but my life consisted of travelling all the time (no biorhythm), working out every day, eating super clean (restricting foods).

‘I think I pressured my body too much, and honestly every body is so different but I think my weight was not good for my body to function properly and couldn’t handle the constant traveling.

‘This was the point where I started to research natural healing for PCOS and came to the conclusion that I should do way less high intensity training, don’t restrict foods, be nice to myself, and take breaks when needed. 

‘I also tried some natural supplements, acupuncture and we got a place back in the Netherlands as well, so we could spend more time with Family (since im such a family person).
