According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the obesity prevalence in America from 2017 to March of 2020 is 41.9%. Almost half of the population suffers from being overweight and they’ll grow in numbers in the coming years.

Excessive weight is caused by a variety of reasons and we’re familiar with most of them, but how about the effects of weight gain? Obesity can negatively impact a woman’s menstrual cycle. Specifically, it contributes to infrequent and heavier periods that people sometimes confuse with something more serious like pregnancy when they skip multiple periods or Myoma due to heavy vaginal bleeding.

An increase in your adipose tissue or your stored body fats leads to a hormonal imbalance that can prevent ovulation, and if you don’t ovulate, you will skip a period. Obesity also increases menstrual blood loss through Menorrhagia or heavy menstrual bleeding due to systemic inflammation.
