Lara Lewington shares adenomyosis battle & surgery

Lara Lewington, wife of Martin Lewis, recently revealed she underwent a hysterectomy. The TV presenter shared her health journey on Instagram ten days after the procedure, explaining it was a result of battling adenomyosis. This painful condition, often difficult to diagnose, significantly impacted her.

As a tech journalist specializing in health, Lewington utilized her wearable devices to track her recovery immediately after surgery. She observed how these devices captured data on her body's stress levels and heart rate responses to activities like short walks, offering insights into her physical strain.

Lewington noted that while wearables are valuable for monitoring, they cannot fully capture subjective experiences like pain or extreme tiredness. She also discussed the increasing integration of wearable data into medical diagnoses, acknowledging its benefits and limitations.

She is currently working on a feature for the New York Post concerning serious diagnoses made by women using cycle tracking features. Lewington also referenced her book, 'Hacking Humanity,' in discussing the future of health technology.
