Managing Menopause after Bariatric Surgery

Let me know what you thought of this episode!

Today we’re diving into a topic that affects many women who have undergone bariatric surgery—menopause and the potential for weight regain. 

Menopause is a natural phase of life that every woman will experience, usually between the ages of 45 and 55, though it can happen earlier or later. It marks the end of menstruation and is characterized by a significant drop in estrogen and other hormones. This hormonal shift can lead to a range of symptoms like hot flashes, mood swings, and sleep disturbances. But for many women, one of the most frustrating aspects of menopause is weight gain, particularly around the abdomen. 

I go through several strategies to help manage this phase of life effectively.  Remember, this is a journey, and it’s okay to ask for help along the way. Menopause is a significant transition, but with the right tools and support, you can continue to thrive.
