She wrote on Instagram: "PCOS has been kicking my a** lately with this weight fluctuation I've had zero motivation to work out. Forced myself yesterday and today. So proud."
The 'Grown-ish' star revealed her diagnosis in the summer of 2023 and admitted she was still "learning how to live" with it.
In shouting a shoutout to author Candice Craig, Francia wrote on Instagram: "My friend wrote a book about PCOS. I also have PCOS and still learning how to live with it. Thanks for this @candice. (sic)"
The actress didn't share any further details about her own diagnosis.
However, Candice also took to social media to share the inspiration behind her book, 'Living With PCOS: Road To Reversal'.
She wrote on Instagram: "This book is more than just words on paper, it's my truth, my struggles, and my triumphs, wrapped in one. I remember the days when PCOS had me feeling defeated, questioning if there was any hope for change.
"But in my darkest moments, I found a spark that led me onto this path of healing. I literally asked you guys what you would like to know about my findings while on this journey and you told me what you need so I put it all in one place for you. This is something I wish I had when 1st being diagnosed. (sic)"
