For many women, bariatric surgery doesn’t close the door to pregnancy, it may actually help open it.

It’s possible for women to experience improved fertility and a reduced risk of pregnancy-related complications like gestational diabetes or high blood pressure.

When the time is right, your body may be in a stronger, healthier place for pregnancy - but it’s important to check in with your doctor, as many recommend waiting 18–24 months before trying to conceive.

If you’re considering what’s possible for you in the future, we’re here to accompany you on that journey.

With weight-loss medications gaining popularity, it’s natural to wonder if they’re a better option than bariatric surgery.🤔

Both can support weight loss, but they could have different long-term outcomes:

➡️ Medications may help in the short term, but often require ongoing use
➡️ Surgery can offer more sustained results, especially for those with obesity-related health conditions.

The answer you're looking for all depends on your health, lifestyle, and goals.

📲 If you want an approach specifically made for you, DM us to book a consultation with Dr. Asante!

Our safe, accredited Gastric Sleeve program is designed to support long-term weight loss - especially for those facing challenges with weight-related health conditions.

While every patient is different, you may qualify if you have:

✔️ A BMI over 35 (with a related health condition)
✔️ Obesity-linked issues such as diabetes or sleep apnea
✔️ Previous unsuccessful attempts at sustained weight loss
✔️ A readiness to commit to lifestyle changes after surgery

If you’d like to find out more or see if you qualify for our program, DM us today to connect with Dr. Asante if you haven’t already.📲

Ever wondered how a Gastric Sleeve procedure actually helps you lose weight?

During this procedure, about 80% of your stomach is surgically removed, leaving behind a narrow “sleeve” or banana-sized pouch.

Here’s what this does for you:

✅ With a smaller stomach, you feel full faster and naturally eat less.
✅ The part of the stomach removed produces a hormone called ghrelin, which plays a major role in hunger.
✅ It can lead to better blood sugar control and improvements in obesity-related conditions like Type 2 diabetes and high blood pressure.

It’s not a quick fix, but with commitment and the right care, the gastric sleeve can be a powerful tool for long-term weight loss.

Want to know more? Comment or DM us “Sleeve” and we’ll send you all the details. 💪
