Selena Gomez may not be able to carry children in the future due to her bipolar disorder medications.
“That’s a very big, big present thing in my life,” the actress, 30, told Rolling Stone for her December 2022 cover story, published Thursday.
“However I’m meant to have them, I will.”
Gomez was prescribed many medications after a 2018 psychosis episode and bipolar disorder diagnosis, but her psychiatrist pulled her off all but two.
“I had to detox, essentially, from the medications I was on,” the “Same Old Love” singer recalled to the magazine. “I had to learn how to remember certain words. I would forget where I was when we were talking.”
The actress told Rolling Stone she is on two medications for bipolar disorder.

Gomez, who has been speaking openly about her mental health ahead of her “Selena Gomez: My Mind & Me” documentary release Friday, also reflected on feeling “gone” before detoxing.
“There was no part of me that was there anymore,” she said.

The “Wizards of Waverly Place” alum’s reveal comes two months after she shared her family plans on an episode of “Giving Back Generation.”
“I hope to be married and to be a mom,” she said in August.
While celebrating her birthday over the summer, Gomez had a wedding-themed bash because she “thought” she’d have tied the knot by now.

“I grew up thinking I would be married at 25,” the “Only Murders in the Building” star told Rolling Stone.
“It wrecked me that I was nowhere near that — couldn’t be farther from it,” she continued. “It was so stupid, but I really thought my world was over.”

She called the party “a mixture of sophisticated and hysterical,” explaining, “We had lovely drinks, and it was beautiful, and then my friend Cara [Delevingne] comes in and brings strippers.”
Miley Cyrus, Olivia Rodrigo, Francia Raisa, Camila Cabello and Billie Eilish also attended the star-studded affair.
Gomez told the outlet that she plans to “disappear” after “My Mind & Me” comes out.
“This is probably the most you’ll hear about me for a while,” she said. “I want this to come out, but I also want this behind me.”
