Danica Patrick is getting something important off of her chest.

On April 29, the former professional racecar driver, 40, revealed on Instagram that she had recently removed her breast implants after developing adverse side effects. 

“I had breast implants.” [in] November of 2014. Danica explained that she got the bras because she wants to be able to do everything. “I wasn’t very fit. But I had boobs. These were the right choice for me. They were great and everything went smoothly. 

However, in early 2018, she began experiencing some irregularities in her health. Her words were: “I started to notice that my hair was less healthy, and it was becoming more brittle.” “I gained several pounds, but had no success losing it.” 

All of it came to an end in 2020. I had [menstrual] cycle irregularity, gained more weight, my hair wasn’t looking healthy at all and my face was a different shape (weird I know),” she said. It was a rabbit hole that I used to find the answer. “I did all the tests that were possible.”
