welcome to the hs fight club


This HS Fight Club platform was created to spread awareness and light to Hidradenitis Suppurativa. It’s predicted that 0.3-0.4% of the world population has HS, yet many people are not diagnosed. Just like many others, the creator of HS Fight Club member Mahala Preudhomme has had HS since she was 13 years old but didn’t get properly diagnosed until she was 23. Mahala made this organization because there are so many stigmas around HS and a lack of representation.

About Mahala

HS Fight Club Founder

I was diagnosed with HS at 23 years old after having it for 13 years. HS has been a key factor in my depression and anxiety like many others. At the age of 25 I signed with one of the biggest modeling agencies in the world and I knew I had to start speaking about life with HS. Photographers, stylist, and even many of my family members have looked at me with disgust not having the awareness to know this disease isn’t due to personal hygiene. Many of us, including me don’t have proper resources or spaces… which is why i created this HS Fight Club
