1. More fat gathers around your abdomen, and thereโs less fat around your hips and thighs (which is a healthier place for women to carry their fat). This visceral abdominal fat can increase the risk of diabetes, heart disease, and breast cancer.
Estrogen comes from the ovaries and adipose (fat) tissues. When the ovaries decrease or stops production, the body compensates and creates more adipose tissueโฆ particularly around the abdomen. This happens because estrogen plays a crucial role in weight management by influencing fat distribution, metabolic rate, and muscle mass. When estrogen decreases during menopause, fat accumulation shifts towards the midsection, and the body burns fewer calories, contributing to weight gain.
2. Insulin becomes less effective as we age due to a combination of reduced insulin sensitivity and decreased insulin production. Aging causes cells to become less responsive to insulin, and the pancreas produces less of it, which can lead to higher blood sugar levelโฆ excess sugar is stored as fat.
