The “Wonder Woman” star made the shocking revelation in a recent Instagram post. In the post, she described the circumstances surrounding Ori’s birth. Precisely, she explained how she discovered the blood clot, which turned out to be a rare ailment. 

The actress stated that the ordeal influenced her daughter’s name, Ori, and made her more appreciative of life and conscious of her health. Gadot also had some valuable advice on avoiding getting knocked down by the disease.

Gal Gadot Blood Clot Battle

Referring to the clot as “massive,” Gal Gadot wrote in the post about how she discovered it in February 2024. She began to suspect that something was wrong with her health after “excruciating headaches that confined me to bed.” According to the 39-year-old, the headaches lasted for weeks.

The “excruciating” headaches surfaced one month before the normal delivery time. She then ran to the doctor for checks. “I finally underwent an MRI that revealed the terrifying truth.” Doctors told her that there was a big clot lodged in her brain.

The diagnosis showed that she had CVT, which stands for cerebral venous thrombosis. She disclosed that it was a rare condition that affected only 3 in 100,000 pregnant women over the age of 30. 

Reflecting on 2024, she wrote, “This year has been one of profound challenges and deep reflections.” She further described her emotions after she received the diagnosis. “In one moment, my family and I were faced with how fragile life can be,” she wrote.

“It was a stark reminder of how quickly everything can change, and in the midst of a difficult year, all I wanted was to hold on and live,” she added. Thankfully, she held on till she was out of the woods. Thanks to her doctors, she underwent treatment and got rid of the clot. But before that, she had to deliver her baby.

Speaking about Ori’s birth, Gal Gadot disclosed she had to go through an emergency surgery and delivered her baby a couple of hours later. “My daughter, Ori, was born during that moment of uncertainty and fear,” she wrote.

Ori is a Hebrew name that means “my light.” Gadot revealed why she chose the name. “Before the surgery, I told Jaron that when our daughter arrived, she would be the light waiting for me at the end of this tunnel.” True to her hopes, her new bundle of joy was waiting for her after she went under the knife. 

Gal Gadot didn’t forget to appreciate the doctors of Cedars Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles for their amazing job. Overall, she is grateful for life and the lessons she learned. “I made it through and began the road to recovery. Today, I am fully healed and filled with gratitude for the life I’ve been given back,” she also wrote.

How Is Gal Gadot Faring Post-Pregnancy?

Despite the obstacles, Gal Gadot’s pregnancy journey was a success. She has also bounced back to full health after completing her CVT treatment. In her Instagram post, she shared the secrets of her survival. These are some crucial lessons she desires everyone to learn from. 

“First, it’s vital to listen to our bodies and trust what it’s telling us,” she began. “Pain, discomfort, or even subtle changes often carry a deeper meaning, and being attuned to your body can be life-saving,” she advised. 

She shared that early detection gave her a massive advantage over the condition. “It’s so important to identify early because it’s treatable,” she stated. Gadot thinks that the low awareness about the health condition is dangerous. “While rare, it’s a possibility, and knowing it exists is the first step to addressing it,” she stressed. 

She feels fulfilled sharing her story and educating women about the threat. Gadot wishes that as many women as possible would learn about the health challenge. However, she stated, “If even one person feels compelled to take action for their health because of this story, it will have been worth sharing.”

Gal Gadot didn’t share the news about the blood clot diagnosis when she announced Ori’s birth in March. We aren’t sure why she hid the news from the public. Probably, she didn’t want the news to steal any bit from her joy of motherhood.

“My sweet girl, welcome. The pregnancy was not easy, and we made it through,” she wrote to Ori in her post. Interestingly, this wouldn’t be the first time Gadot would survive a tough pregnancy.
