AGOURA HILLS, CALIFORNIA: Who doesn't want to have children and complete their family? But, it seems Lexi Young might not be able to fulfill Joey Grazidei's dream of having a kid together as 'The Bachelor' Season 28 contestant suffers from endometriosis.

Lexi fears "potentially never being able to have children". She will be seen self-eliminating herself ahead of the 6th rose ceremony. Reality Steve spills Lexi and Joey's "timelines of marriage and kids didn’t align, so she left".

The 30-year-old Lexi became the first woman to arrive in the limo. Fans were shocked knowing Lexi was the one with the fertility issue.

Feeling pity of her condition, one wrote, "Right off the bat, so here for lexi being open and vulnerable about her health issues and how it may affect fertility. sometimes it’s hard to remember how much progress has been made."

Another claimed, "Oooh do Lexi is the one with the fertility issues."

Another wrote, "Lexi- nice dress, from Toronto (Canadian ) First girl out of the limo can’t have kids."

Lexi Young looks forward to spreading awareness in 'The Bachelor' Season 28

Lexi wants to be open about her endometriosis diagnosis in the show. She believes that doing this will help other woman to be aware of their body.

She says in one of her posts, "I want to help shed light on the seasons of darkness endometriosis can bring by spreading awareness for those suffering from endo and other chronic illnesses, and continue the important conversations that need to be had around infertility."

She wants women to be aware of their pain and symptoms as she ignored it for several years.

Lexi writes, "This diagnosis took countless doctor appointments and so many years of being told my pain and symptoms weren’t real."
