Mondo Health Updated on 2024-02-19

CCTV Beijing, February 19 (Reporter Lei Yan) With the hot release of "Hot and Hot", the topic of Jia Ling losing 100 pounds has become a hot search again.

Wang Zhenna, a reproductive regulator at Shunyi Women's and Children's Hospital of Beijing Children's Hospital, introduced: dieting, exercise and even medication**, I believe many people have tried it. Most people end up with either successful weight loss accompanied by other uncomfortable symptoms, or a direct abandonment after weight loss failure, or a brief success of weight loss followed by **. Blind weight loss and unscientific weight loss methods can detriment health. For women, the biggest hidden danger is "amenorrhea".

1.Dieting: During dieting, the body is short of energy, and the brain will receive signals of lack of energy, and many organs will not be able to function properly. Fat is an important raw material for the synthesis of hormones in the body, and if you lose too much body fat too quickly, it will be difficult to maintain the normal secretion of estrogen, resulting in reduced menstruation and even amenorrhea. After protein is converted into amino acids, it plays a role in renewal and repair, and once it is deficient, there will be health problems such as wrinkles, dry hair, anemia, edema, menstrual disorders, and muscle loss.

It can be seen that any nutrient is very important, when it is lacking for a long time, the body must first ensure the nutritional support of the heart, liver, kidney and other "primary" organs, and choose to reduce or turn off the "secondary" physiological functions to maintain survival, such as menstruation.

2.Overload and heavy exercise: Studies have shown that female athletes have a high proportion of amenorrhea. Because excessive exercise can cause hormone secretion imbalance, which can reduce or delay menstrual flow, or even amenorrhea. The American College of Sports Medicine defines the combination of eating disorders, amenorrhea and osteoporosis in women who exercise regularly as the "female athlete triad".

3.Long-term consumption of various ** drugs: Many ** drugs on the market are accompanied by some adverse reactions, which affect the endocrine system of women to varying degrees, and should not be used for a long time.

Wang Zhenna introduced that in the outpatient clinic, cases of reduced menstruation and amenorrhea after weight loss are common. During weight loss, many women ignore menstrual changes until amenorrhea occurs. In particular, short-term rapid weight loss, which reduces water and muscle, is not only easy to cause menstrual disorders and amenorrhea in women, but also prone to accompanying symptoms such as hair loss and decreased immunity.

Therefore, to lose weight healthily, the scientific approach is important. When done right, you can not only maintain a healthy weight in the long term, but also achieve a healthy body.

1.Establish a regular weight-loss cycle. Weight loss should be gradual, e.g. no more than 1kg per week, and a negative balance of 500-1000kcal can be achieved by adjusting diet and exercise on top of daily energy requirements. It is recommended that people with a body mass index (BMI) of more than 28 should lose no more than 1 weight per week5kg。After the weight loss is up to standard, it is still necessary to control the balance between calorie intake and exercise intensity to avoid**. Patients with obesity and polycystic ovary syndrome should also ask a doctor to give fish guidance based on individual conditions.

2.Define your weight-loss goals. Don't blindly pursue the weight "not more than 100", but according to your personal situation, in accordance with the purpose of reasonable nutrition, balanced diet, moderate fitness and exercise, establish a correct concept of health management, start from small things, and summarize the simple, easy and comfortable way to lose weight that is suitable for you and can be adhered to for a long time.

3.Establish the concept of healthy beauty. Establish a correct sense of aesthetics, and don't sacrifice "healthy beauty" for "sick beauty".
