Menopause Weight Gain

Description

Midlife hormonal fat gain, often referred to as menopause weight gain, is a common concern for women experiencing the natural transition of menopause. As estrogen levels decline, many women find themselves grappling with stubborn belly fat, central obesity, or becoming "apple shaped"—terms like "pot belly," "beer belly," and "internal fat" are often used to describe this frustrating shift. During this stage, metabolism slows and fat redistributes, especially around the abdomen, making it much harder to maintain a healthy weight despite one’s best efforts. Factors such as reduced physical activity, increased stress, and age-related muscle loss also contribute to weight changes, raising the risk for conditions like high blood pressure, diabetes, and heart disease. Understanding menopause weight gain and its common names can empower women to take proactive steps, focusing on lifestyle changes like balanced diet and exercise for better health and confidence in midlife and beyond.
