Turning to Our OBGYN for Weight Loss
As we mentioned above, hormones play a major role in a woman’s ability or inability to lose weight and maintain a healthy weight. In this case, no amount of exercising or eating right is going to cut it. Of course, how are you supposed to know this? We can recognize the warning signs of hormonal imbalances or thyroid dysfunction, which are common reasons women have trouble losing weight or maintaining a healthy body mass index (BMI). By providing patients with the proper thyroid medication or hormonal replacement therapy, we can help to balance hormones and improve thyroid dysfunction to make losing weight easier. We also provide support, personalized recommendations, and regular monitoring, which helps women stay on track when it comes to their weight loss goals.
