What is Obesity?
Obesity is a complex health condition characterized by excess accumulation of body fat that negatively impacts overall health. It is not just about appearance — it’s a medical concern that increases the risk of several health problems like diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, infertility, and hormonal imbalance.
For women, obesity often affects menstrual cycles, fertility, pregnancy outcomes, and menopause, making it an important aspect of overall gynecological and hormonal wellness.
At Shree Clinic, we take a comprehensive, scientific, and supportive approach to weight management — addressing not just diet or exercise, but the underlying causes such as hormones, lifestyle, and metabolism.
Causes of Obesity
Obesity develops when caloric intake exceeds energy expenditure, but several underlying factors contribute to this imbalance:
- Hormonal changes (thyroid imbalance, PCOD, menopause-related changes)
- Genetic predisposition
- Sedentary lifestyle
- Unhealthy diet or irregular eating habits
- Sleep deprivation and stress
- Post-pregnancy weight gain
- Certain medications (like steroids or hormonal pills)
At Shree Clinic, we identify and treat the root causes rather than just focusing on weight loss, ensuring long-term results.
Symptoms and Related Concerns
- Gradual weight gain, especially around the abdomen, thighs, or hips
- Irregular menstrual cycles
- Infertility or difficulty conceiving
- Fatigue or low energy levels
- Joint pain and body aches
- Shortness of breath or snoring
- Low self-esteem or mood fluctuations
Obesity can also be linked with conditions like PCOD, thyroid dysfunction, insulin resistance, and metabolic syndrome, all of which require specialized medical care.
Health Risks Associated with Obesity
If untreated, obesity can increase the risk of:
- Type 2 Diabetes
- High blood pressure & cholesterol
- Heart disease and stroke
- Sleep apnea
- Fatty liver disease
- Infertility and pregnancy complications
- Hormonal and menstrual disorders
