MENOPAUSE CAN MAKE US GAIN WEIGHT.

I am 52 years young woman with some funny symptoms developing for 3-4 years. My periods are irregular and I have anxiety all the time. I am gaining weight and fullmoody always.

My children and husband are wondering what has happened to me.

So I decided to visit Aspire Life Bariatrics - A Weight- management clinic. I met Dr Ashish Vashistha, the BEST BARIATRIC SURGEON IN DELHI, a Senior laparoscopic and Robotic Bariatric Surgeon at Max Hospital. He evaluated my case thoroughly –

- Took my complete Medical History
- Took my complete dietary History
- Looked into my symptoms
- My BMI was calculated, and Abdominal circumference was measured
- My lifestyle was evaluated
- Social habits like smoking and alcohol consumption were looked into

The team found that my BMI was 32 and Abdominal circumference was 120 cm.

They also found out that Obesity runs in our family and perimenopause is a phase in the life of women when periods are about to end and there is Hormonal imbalance.

Dr. Ashish Vashistha BEST BARIATRIC SURGEON IN DELHI explained that during menopause you can have the following symptoms

- Hot flushes
- Night Sweets
- Difficulty in sleeping
- Headaches
- Joint pains
- Weight gain
- Recurrent UTI
- Reduced libido

During Menopause

Your estrogen begins to fluctuate and Metabolisms slows down This leads to fat storage around mid-abdomen which is very difficult to reduce.

The weight tends to gather around the middle as visceral fat and crucially around vital organs which can prove dangerous

Dr. Ashish Vashistha, BEST BARIATRIC SURGEON IN DELHI advised me to get some blood tests done specifically

- Blood sugar
- Lipid profile
- Sleep study
- Thyroid profile

After evaluating reports, he advised me of weight loss (bariatric surgery) for sustained weight loss and correction of my pre-diabetic condition. I postponed my surgery for 3 months and he suggested lifestyle changes like

- DIET RESTRICTED TO 1200 KCAL

- AEROBIC EXERCISE FOR 45 MINUTES DAILY

- STRENGTH TRAINING EVERY ALTERNATE DAY

- WEIGHT LOSS MEDICINE FOR ONE MONTH

- WITH in 3 months, I reduced 10 kg

- I Feel much better, more fit, and more active, my hair quality is better, and almost all symptoms are gone.

Now my BMI is 28. I am trying to lose weight with lifestyle changes.
