Amy Schumer says she has Cushing's syndrome, an autoimmune disease. The condition is caused by steroid injections and a high presence of cortisol.

The actress said she feels like she's been "reborn" about her diagnosis. She added that she is going public with her condition to "work for women's health""I so want women to love themselves and be ruthless as they fight for their health in a system that generally doesn't believe them," she said. "Maybe we can all be a little nicer to each other and to ourselves," she added.
