What is an Illness that Idols are prone to develop?
What is an illness that a young woman suddenly
rocketed to stardom may develop?

Stress.

Now what would someone like Koba give to someone who was suffering from stress, but a specific type of stress.
Factor in this one BIG supposition, and it's a supposition I'll clarify later on, what if Yui suffers from Adrenal Insufficiency or low Cortisol production in general? Hear me out.


These disorders usually develop later in life, and occurs more commonly in women.


Cortisol is a hormone in the human body that is released in response to stress and low blood sugar. A lack of Cortisol production can result in severe abdominal pains, vomiting, profound muscle weakness and fatigue, depression, extremely low blood pressure, weight loss, kidney failure, changes in mood and personality, and shock.


Enter Hydrocortisone.
This drug is used to fight this deficiency, however it also helps with dealing with stress as there is an increase in Cortisol in the system.
so for Koba this might be killing 2 birds with one stone.
However.
Side effects of Hydro-cortisone include mood changes, increased risk of infection, and swelling. If used as a stress reliever, consistently and/or in large doses visible effects include weight gain, roundness of the face, increased facial hair growth, bruising, and swelling, also including non-visible effects are muscle pain and/or weakness.

So if Koba (or BM doctors) are using Hydrocortisone as a stress reliever then they'd probably be using it a lot, considering the touring BM does.
