Weight loss surgery is the ideal solution that many patients choose, after getting no good results with diets and exercises.
However, weight loss surgery and obesity treatment is not only for obtaining the perfect shape that we dream of, or to get more attractive! Rather than that, it has multiple benefits that include many health and even psychological aspects.
Excessive weight is a problem that affects all organs in the body, such as the heart, blood vessels, gallbladder, liver, bones, muscles and brain. Hence, getting rid of this extra weight will lead to an improvement for all of these organs
Here are some of the many benefits for weight loss surgery:
1- Improve heart health
Obesity, in addition to smoking, is one of the most important causes of heart and arterial diseases, such as: heart failure - atrial fibrillation - vein thrombosis - stroke - coronary heart disease - ventricular fibrillation..etc.
Weight loss surgeries will definitely change the condition of your heart and arteries, as it reduces the accumulation of fat in the veins and arteries , thus improving the heart's functioning and pumping blood effectively.
2- Reducing the incidence of uterine and ovarian cancer in women
It was found that there is a strong relation between excess weight in women and many problems of the female reproductive system, especially uterine cancer, which is very common among obese women. For example, if a woman is overweight by 12.7 kilograms, then the risk of developing uterine cancer for her is about twice that of a woman who has an average weight or just 5 kilograms over.
Thus, weight loss surgery may save many women from these cancers, as well as change the direction of pre-cancerous tissue before cancer formation.
3- Reducing the odds of infertility
As a result of reducing the possibility of female reproductive system problems, less weight means better reproductive health, for example : women with PCOS, which arises from a hormonal disorder due to excess fat, find it difficult to get pregnant. Therefore, weight loss surgery is one of the effective solutions for those who suffer from PCOS and want to have children.
4- Reducing joint and back pain
There is no doubt that excess weight puts a great burden on the joints of the body due to severe stress, and this may lead to other problems in the back and bones, or in the best cases, feeling constant fatigue and difficulty in movement while performing any kind of work or normal household activities. Also, excess weight causes many problems for the back, because the increase in belly fat causes pressure on the back and its leaning forward, and thus many vertebrae are affected in the back and problems of a herniated disc and others appear.
After weight loss surgery, these problems are greatly reduced and can disappear completely if they have not been there for a long time.
5- Controlling type 2 diabetes and reducing its symptoms
One of the negative effects of having body obesity for a long time is diabetes and insulin resistance, because the accumulated fat secretes substances and enzymes that reduce the body’s use of insulin. Fortunately, this cycle can be broken by removing the first catalyst, which is excess fat and excess weight with weight loss surgeries.
6- Better mental & psychological state
Many studies showed how the psychological state affects the body in many aspects, which means that the improvement of the psychological state itself may be a treatment for many other medical problems that an obese patient suffers from. Especially stress and depression that may lead to the problem of emotional eating, which in turn increases the problem of obesity due to eating sugars and starches in an attempt to improve mood.
With weight loss surgery, this bad mood will change completely once the patient sees the shape and size of his new body and wears the old clothes that he loved before gaining weight.
