Satsuki Toyooka is an actress. She debuted in 2017, and people often see her wearing an oxygen mask. She has shared very bad news. She is fighting a rare illness that might take her life.
She posted on social media. Doctors diagnosed her with hydatidiform mole, a condition in the uterus. Now the condition has become worse. Doctors are checking if it has turned into invasive mole or choriocarcinoma. All tests are finished, but the results will arrive next week.
If doctors confirm choriocarcinoma, she will need a hysterectomy and then chemotherapy. This is very hard for her, because she has always wanted to have a child. Satsuki calls herself a freak, but she tries to stay positive. She gave three clear messages to different people.
To other actresses who still work in the industry, she says AV work puts great strain on the body, especially the reproductive system. She tells them to have regular health check-ups. Health is the most important thing you have. Do not push your body too hard like she did. That is how she became sick.
To her fans, she explains her condition will reduce new video releases. Instead she will do more in-person events. Please come to those events and see her while it is still possible.
To studios and event organizers, she says sorry in advance. Her treatment will make many shoots very difficult or impossible. But apart from that, she is willing to accept other work. This includes supporting roles, appearances, events, or anything else. Please contact her agency. She will work as hard as she can.
At the end of her post, she says she already has events scheduled for the next few days. No one knows how her illness will develop. There is a real possibility these will be the last chances to meet her. So please come soon if you want to see her.
This news is truly shocking. In this kind of work, bad things can happen suddenly. But like Satsuki said, health is everything. Compared to problems like doxxing or other issues that make girls leave, the body matters most. Some people might think this job ruins lives. Through her own case, she hopes the whole industry will finally care about health. Starting now, everyone should take better care of their bodies and get regular check-ups.
Wishing Satsuki Toyooka a speedy recovery.
