Annie Knight said she was hospitalised after her reported six-hour challenge involving 583 men on May 18, 2025. But the timing does not establish that the event caused her symptoms: in a later interview, Knight said they had begun in January, months before the challenge, and that clinicians told her the challenge was not the cause.
What Annie Knight reported after the challenge
In an interview published May 21, 2025, Us Weekly reported that Knight said she had sex with 583 men over six hours on Sunday, May 18, and had been hospitalised by May 20. Knight told the publication she was bleeding and in pain, and described the area as raw with a small cut. She also said she had blood tests and further medical testing.
Those details are Knight’s account as reported in an interview. The coverage did not publish medical records or a statement from a treating clinician, so it does not independently establish a diagnosis or the cause of her symptoms.
Did the event cause her hospitalisation?
The public timeline supports a sequence—challenge, then hospital visit—but not a proven cause. In a follow-up published June 9, Us Weekly reported that Knight said her symptoms had started in January, before the May challenge. She recalled, “I’ve been having these issues since January and I only did the challenge in May.”

Knight also said she had felt better after her symptoms stopped several days earlier. She recounted that clinicians ultimately told her the challenge was not the cause. That is her account of medical discussions; the publication did not provide clinical documentation to verify it.
What Knight said about stress and endometriosis
In an interview published May 22, PEDESTRIAN.TV reported that Knight was back home and resting. Knight said organising the event, taking part in it and editing had put her body under stress, and that stress had exacerbated her endometriosis. She had also described stress and endometriosis when discussing her symptoms with Us Weekly.
Rank #2
These are Knight’s explanations, not a confirmed clinical finding about what caused the bleeding, pain or hospital visit. PEDESTRIAN.TV attributed an estimate of one in seven women and people with a uterus to the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare’s 2023 Endometriosis in Australia report; that population estimate does not establish the cause of Knight’s individual symptoms.

- Reported event: Knight told Us Weekly she had sex with 583 men over six hours on May 18, 2025. The figure is an interview claim, not an independently verified count.
- Reported health details: Knight described bleeding, pain, a small cut and medical testing. No medical record or treating clinician statement was included in the cited coverage.
- Reported timing and improvement: Knight said her symptoms began in January and later stopped, and that she felt better.
- Cause: The sequence alone cannot show that the challenge caused the hospital visit. Knight later said clinicians told her it was not the cause; that account has not been independently documented in the coverage.
A May 2026 Us Weekly retrospective repeated the event account and reported Knight’s claim that 2,000 people registered and that participants were asked to wear condoms. These event details, like the 583 figure, were attributed to Knight rather than independently audited.
