Underweight Weight Gain For Female above 18 years

Home • Underweight Weight Gain For Female above 18 years

The best treatment for underweight weight gain in females that we provide with CAP under medical supervision focuses on achieving the target BMI between 18.5 and 23, female body shape and contour, composition and lean mass fat mass ratio with optimised nutrition, stimulation and protection from toxic exposure. The additional weight gain which should qualify as healthy weight gain is a result of health optimisation and actually focuses on improving both fat and muscle/bone weight to provide a healthy look and feel including that of the skin.Health optimisation also helps to overcome health disorders associated with underweight.

Overview

Underweight is very worrying if the body composition is showing poor lean mass to fat mass ratio also.

The most difficult challenge in underweight is the lack of correct awareness of how to approach the issue in a planned way to understand underlying contexts and take measures to obtain the best results.
The second challenge is to understand how the lower weight can not only affect the appearance and confidence but more importantly affect the functioning of body organs, systems and tissues which can result in abnormal functioning.
The third challenge is to understand that weight gain under medical supervision has the added benefit of careful monitoring of body parameters at regular intervals to reach the desired results.
The fourth challenge is to understand how the individual can use lifestyle optimisation under clinical supervision for healthier weight gain.
A full understanding of health optimisation has helped many underweight patients to overcome their challenges and achieve desired results with the added benefit of achieving correct lean mass to fat mass ratio so as to achieve the desired proportion of muscle and fat.

Symptoms

Underweight individuals have to be , and if diagnosed it is essential to have a thorough check of all body parameters to evaluate tissue and organ health.

Body mass index (BMI) below 18.5 is considered as underweight and whose body weight is considered too low to be healthy. Underweight might be secondary to or symptomatic of an underlying disease or it can also be a primary causative condition. Severely underweight individuals may have poor physical stamina and a weak immune system, leaving them open to infection. Underweight women are prone to osteoporosis and have an increased risk for fractures.

BMI (body mass index=Weight/height in metre square) below 18.5 is considered underweight.
Biometric evaluation, body composition analysis will help to understand the current body status and for assessing the mass gain and progress with treatment.
In the current sedentary lifestyle underweight people may have a higher percentage of fat in the body leading to an imbalance in immune function and inflammatory diseases. This is the reason for the lean people getting autoimmune diseases, heart attack and stroke.
Underweight people who do heavy physical work will have low fat percentage compared to lean mass (muscle and bone weight) due to the dietary deficiency of calories.
Women, being severely underweight can result in amenorrhea (absence of menstruation), infertility, abortion and, if pregnancy weight gain is too low, can affect the health of mother and baby negatively.
Being underweight is an established risk factor for osteoporosis, even for young people.Underweight increases the risk of osteoporosis later in life. Osteoporosis is a condition that causes bones to become weak and break easily.
Being underweight is usually associated with nutritional deficiencies which can cause serious health problems, such as a weaker immune system with frequent infections and anemia with feeling dizzy, lightheaded, weak, or tired most of the time.
Studies show that depression is more common in women who are underweight than women who are at a healthy weight.
Women who are underweight earlier in adulthood may also experience menopause sooner than women who stayed at a normal weight.
Underweight women are prone for hair thinning or loss, dry skin and teeth issues.

Root Cause

Some individuals can be persistently underweight without any identifiable health problems and this is called primary underweight. In such individuals being underweight and looking frail is not only an aesthetic problem but for many it will affect confidence, stamina, personality and performance. Negative impact of underweight may affect the person in many ways including getting selection in the preferred job as a model, as an actor, in visual media performer, air hostess, in defence service, police force etc. The performance in the job, promotion, earnings; and even getting a suitable life partner can be affected. Underweight can also be secondary due to an underlying disease or health condition.

Female underweight can be caused due to nutritional, physiological as well as attitudinal issues and in some cases due to environmental circumstances.

Primary underweight is generally due to deficiency of nutrients for bodybuilding or lack of physical activity leading to reduced blood and lymph circulation and reduced delivery of nutrients for growth and repair of cells and disuse atrophy.
Reduced physical activity reduces the intake of oxygen and the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to the body parts at cellular level.
Deficiency of calorie rich food like carbohydrate and fat either due to decreased food intake or increased need due to heavy physical activity leads to reduction in fat mass.
In women if the fat mass in the body is less than 15% of the total weight, it can affect production of reproductive hormones negatively leading to menstrual irregularity and infertility.
Even if the food is plenty some individuals are not able to take sufficient food to increase weight due to lack of appetite, which may be of hormonal origin related to hypothalamic control of appetite and hormones from fat tissue like leptin adiponectin etc.
Reduced appetite, insufficient intake of food, eating disorder and low fat mass associated hormonal imbalance, lack of muscle and bone mass due to reduced physical activity etc are the major cases of underweight in apparently healthy people.
Secondary or underweight due to an underlying factor like lack of food (frequently due to poverty), genetics, metabolism, drug use, eating disorder, or illness like anorexia, type 1 diabetes, hyperthyroidism, cancer, or tuberculosis, gastrointestinal or liver problems etc.

Treatment challenges

Since the problems can be at any point starting from underlying health factors of ill health to certain attitudes towards different foods and sometimes other disorders the focus should be on optimising health rather than just gain weight .

Challenge in medical treatment

In underweight it is to identify the cause of the problem and provide remedial treatment where possible and to optimise health to improve treatment outcomes.

Treatment objectives

In treating female underweight often the real treatment is overcoming the root cause. Generally, once the inhibiting factors are identified it is possible to optimise health and gain weight with matching lean mass fat mass ratio. This helps ensure the additional weight gain is not only as a result of fat deposit but has proportionate muscle weight as well.

Cell Activation

Approach – Root cause

The focus is on addressing underweight with healthy weight gain.

The goal of Cell activation treatment for weight gain for underweight women is not only just gaining weight but to optimize health and optimize your body shape, beauty, personality and body strength.
