Badosa: "I'm really struggling with my period".

Paula Badosa gave an interview to former Spanish tennis player Alex Corretja ahead of the Billie Jean King Cup. She declared that she was in a stable period after a fine end to the year.

The Spaniard touched on the subject of mental health: "I'm really struggling with my periods. It's something my team has fully planned for.

The week it happens, we do everything we can to make sure it doesn't affect me too much. Because yes, it affects not only my mood, but also physically.

Now I'm in a stable period. I've been through a lot over the years. I've experienced anxiety and depression.

The whole process took work. Now I'm more experienced and mature. In those difficult moments, I worked harder and drew on more strength to move forward."

Badosa also spoke of the support of her partner, Stefanos Tsitsipas: "We respect and admire each other a lot.

He's been there for me in almost all my bad moments and has been a great support. Having your partner believe in you also helps."
