There are a load of external reasons for weight gain, but we definitely should not forget about the role of metabolic hormones. If you have a healthy diet and do plenty of exercise, yet still cannot seem to shake off that extra weight, then you might have an internal problem. Below you can find four hormone-related reasons for weight gain. The adrenal glands are responsible for the fight-or-flight response to stress. If your body is stressed out too much, you may start to develop a hormonal imbalance, leading to different dysfunctions. Furthermore, adrenal glands also generate cortisol, a stress hormone, an excess of which results in abdominal weight gain. Symptoms of adrenal gland dysfunction: • Fat deposits in the abdominal and waist areas • Fullness of the face and neck, with relatively thinner arms and legs • Increased blood pressure • High blood sugar, mood swings, and weak muscles. If you suspect your weight gain might be because of your adrenal glands, consult your physician and try to reduce stress, perhaps with yoga or meditation. 2. Hepatic Weight Gain This is characteristic of women with a hormonal imbalance. All carbohydrates that are consumed by women are transformed into fat deposits. Therefore, no matter how healthily a woman with a hormonal imbalance eats, she'll still gain weight. The following are some symptoms of ovarian dysfunction: • Weight gain even when dieting and exercising • A craving for dairy and sweets • Fat deposits in the lower parts of the body • Aches and pains in the ovaries This is not a comprehensive list of reasons for weight gain when you have a healthy diet and lifestyle. Therefore, if you've suddenly started to gain weight and can't lose it, you should consult your physician. |
