Answered on 10th July '24

You might be going through an eating disorder. Skipping meals and binge eating can mess up your body and mind. When the cortisol and inflammation levels are high, it can be concerning. It is still significant to ask for a professional's competence to help and assist you in improving your life.

Side effects of bariartic surgery

Female | 47

Bariatric surgery can have both positive effects on health and potential side effects. The specific side effects can vary depending on the type of bariatric surgery performed, but here are some common ones:


Surgical risks: It includes infection, bleeding, blood clots, and adverse reactions to anesthesia.

Nutritional deficiencies:It impacts nutrient absorption and lead to deficiencies of iron, vitamin B12, calcium, and vitamin D. These deficiencies may require lifelong supplementation and close monitoring.

Dumping syndrome: Can occur after gastric bypass surgery, where food moves too quickly from the stomach to the small intestine. You may experience nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, dizziness, and rapid heart rate after meals.

Gallstones: Rapid weight loss after bariatric surgery can increase the risk of developing gallstones. 

Changes in bowel habits: Some individuals may experience changes in bowel movements like diarrhea or constipation, after bariatric surgery.

Hair loss: Temporary hair loss or thinning may occur due to nutritional deficiencies or rapid weight loss. This is usually temporary and can be managed with proper nutrition.

Psychological and emotional changes: Bariatric surgery can have a significant impact on body image, self-esteem, and emotional well-being. Some may experience depression, anxiety, or body image issues post-surgery.

My mother is suffering from overweight. Can she have a liposuction therapy as she is in her early 50's.

Female | 49

Liposuction or literally ‘sucking out fat’ is a suboptimal therapy for OBESE patients who desire weight loss. Liposuction can be considered as a treatment option for body sculpting, or slightly overweight patients who need to shape their abdomen in a particular manner. However, if one is obese, liposuction will cause a disproportionate loss of fat over the tummy, and leave space for fat re-accumulation in the future.

 

There are many weight loss options for a proportionate weight loss, eg. diet, exercise, or medications.

 

The healthier or ‘more natural’ way to lose weight in obese patients (with a BMI of more than 30 kg/m2) is bariatric or metabolic surgery, wherein the stomach is re-sized or bypassed using keyhole surgery. This surgery causes proportionate loss of fat all over the body up to 80% of the excess body weight, over a period of 1-1.5 years. This surgery is a safe and effective option if done by a certified surgeon at a high-volume center.

I am seeking to get relief from bloating and obesity

Male | 31

Bloating occurs when your stomach fe­els full, swollen. It's caused by fast e­ating, carbonated beverage­s, or certain foods. Obesity means e­xcess body fat. Causes: exce­ssive fatty food intake, insufficient physical activity. Pre­vent bloating: eat slower, avoid fizzy drinks, consume­ more fruits, vegetable­s. Combat obesity: increase e­xercise, choose he­althier options like fruits, veggie­s, lean proteins. Small lifestyle­ modifications can significantly impact.

Female | 33

It may seem to you that some health problems are a result of the quick loss of weight after the delivery of a baby. Being dizzy, having less breath, and feeling tired can be some signs that your body is trying to tell you it's not yet ready to recover. Eating healthy foods, keeping yourself hydrated, and getting enough sleep are the things that are of utmost importance.

Am 21 year old girl I need weight gain injection for a week

Female | 21

It is completely normal to want to increase weight; however, shots are not the solution. If you feel sick or unintentionally lose weight, seek medical advice immediately. Rapid loss of weight might be due to stress, sickness, or an underlying medical condition. The doctor will guide you on how to gain weight safely and healthily.

Female | 17

Increased body weight is most often seen in symptoms such as low energy levels, breath difficulties, and joint pain. Some possible factors are a poor diet and insufficient physical activity. To shed some pounds, practice eating more fruits and vegetables, drink water, and exercise more often. As for height, please remember that it is mainly hereditary; however, stretching exercises may provide great results.

I'm sravya I'm 22 years old,,iam too lean even o ate more ,,i want weight gain injections for early weight gain

Female | 22

It's critical to understand the fact that, being underweight is a condition which happens due to various reasons such as metabolism, diet, and sometimes underlying health issues. In place of injections, discuss your issue with a healthcare expert. They can evaluate your condition and advise you to have a balanced diet filled with healthy calories and doing strength training to add on to your muscles. This approach is comparatively safer, more secure, and sustainable. Remember, you will gain weight slowly from nutritious foods and exercise which will be beneficial for the whole body health. The consultation of a specialist like a physician or a dietician will make you highly successful in your approach. Keep optimism! With the right plan, you can reach the ideal weight!

Male | 73

On the scheduled date, the increase in weight comes from the daily intake of food and lifestyle habits. Hair loss can be problematic, especially when combined with excessive exercise. It is important to follow the guidance of an instructor and consult your doctor to stay safe. If you're concerned about your weight, it's advisable to discuss it with your doctor.

I need to lose weight without exercise

Female | 20

Losing weight without working out may not boost your he­alth. Needing to shed pounds could me­an tiredness and trouble moving. Ove­reating unhealthy items might trigge­r issues. Try eating more fruits, ve­ggies - not sugary, fatty foods - and drinking lots of water. Small steps improve­ your life.

How to reduce lower body fat??

Female | 20

To reduce fat in your hips, thighs, and buttocks, eat fewer calories than your body needs. Excess calories turn into fat. Focus on eating healthy foods like fruits, veggies, and lean proteins, and exercise regularly. Activities like walking, jogging, or biking can help burn stored fat and improve overall health.
