We know that this month, everyone remembers how wonderful we are. We dress as mothers, wives, girlfriends, professionals, workers, cooks, nurses, drivers... And all the facets that are necessary! However, few remember that each woman must deal every month with a biological process that is difficult in most cases: menstruation. Even when it stops happening and we think that we have already freed ourselves from all the annoying symptoms that we have carried for decades, the result can be even more complicated with menopause.
The menstrual cycle, however, is as complex as it is important for every woman, affecting all aspects of her life. And there is a close relationship between excess weight and the behavior of hormones. This is why in Entalla we have dedicated an especial dition DALE 28-Day Weight Loss Plan to support women's health from the menstrual cycle.
The relationship between hormones and weight
- Unfortunately, weight influences our female cycles more than we think. When a woman is overweight, the production of hormones involved in menstruation and during menopause is altered.
- Estrogen and progesterone are the main hormones in charge of female processes. Estrogen, for example, is stored in fat and when there is too much accumulation of this hormone, changes occur, such as irregular cycles, increased inflammation and pain, changes in metabolism, among other consequences. And these can occur at any age.
- In adolescence, for example, in addition to irregular cycles, obesity and overweight can also cause polycystic ovary syndrome, in which there may be an absence of menstruation or, on the contrary, it may be extremely abundant and painful.(1).
- A study conducted in Australia, with women between 26 and 36years old foundeither that those with higher BMI (Body Mass Index), higher waist circumference and elderly proportionon of Waist hip they were mores prone to having irregular cycles and longer, and those with obesity haveYoeven twice as likely to have an irregular menstrual cycle. The study also showed a relationship between excess weight with high levels of insulin and testosterone, among other things, which also affect menstrual cycles.(2)
- Meanwhile, there is evidence that many of the sYosymptoms that women experience during menopause, from hot flashes to joint and urinary problems, are related with overweight and the obesity. (3)
Therefore, maintaining a healthy weight It's very important. When losing a few pounds we help regulate hormones and to reduce discomfort during the menstrual cycle. And during the menopause, can help reduce hot flushes and to improve the quality of sleep, among other benefits.
