So why do hormones make you fat? Hormones are mainly used to promote the decomposition of fat in our limbs, thus producing the centripetal distribution of fat. Our short-term application of hormones has no obvious effect on our lipid metabolism; But if you use it in large doses for a long time, there are many bad effects besides gaining weight.
Obesity caused by general hormones is centripetal obesity. The conventional hormones are mostly adrenocortical hormones. With the increase of hormone level, it will strengthen the decomposition of glycogen and lead to the increase of blood sugar. The increase of blood sugar will lead to the increase of insulin, which will lead to excessive fat synthesis and obesity. One of the functions of hormones is the redistribution of fat, mainly to the heart and periphery (limbs), and wants to transfer to the abdomen and trunk. Generally speaking, hormones will affect the body's endocrine. If the metabolism is slow, it is likely to lead to obesity. It is best not to take hormone drugs often.
Occasionally taking hormones will not lead to obesity, but long-term use (continuous use for one or two years) will definitely lead to obesity. This kind of obesity is abnormal. Medically, it is called full moon face (round face), buffalo back (thick fat layer on the back) and centripetal obesity (chest and abdomen obesity, emaciated limbs). The exercise effect is not very good. Although the use of hormones will cause changes in appearance, they should be used when necessary. For example, in patients with viral myocarditis, the effect of drugs on virus treatment is not ideal, and hormones can only be used to reduce the damage of myocardial cells to avoid serious damage. Therefore, sometimes doctors should not use hormones. Hormones are transliterated as hormones. The original meaning of Greek is "ascending activity", which plays an important role in regulating the metabolism, growth, development and reproduction of the body.
Therefore, we'd better not use hormones often. In the normal range, it will not lead to obesity. Please use hormones correctly.
