Female hormones are responsible for your hormonal weight gain during puberty, pregnancy and menopause. They are the reason for the silent changes that go on inside your body cells, which often make themselves very visible through your body weight.
We know for a fact that most women resort to rigid diets that are often non-effective and even dangerous. If you are one of these women, you are putting yourself in danger. Starving yourself can only lead to anxiety and depression. Anxiety only makes situations worse.
What you should understand is that your female hormones and weight gain is the work of nature. Since your body knows exactly how much body fat it needs to function properly, you should not worry over temporary increase in weight. It is during crucial times such as puberty, pregnancy and even menopause that your body works biologically in order to keep it in good condition.
During menopause, your physique will change again into a more apple-shaped figure, as fat will be distributed mostly around your belly. The reason for this is that during this stage, the female hormones of your body naturally decline. Since estrogen, a female hormone, is needed to protecting your bones, breasts and bladder, your body tends to find means to make up for its loss by producing this hormone from other sources. One efficient source of estrogen is fat cells. Knowing this, the body converts calories into fat to increase estrogen levels.
