Weight Loss
Addressing Weight as a Medical and Metabolic Condition
Medical care for weight loss at Avara Medical
Weight gain and difficulty losing weight are often influenced by metabolic, hormonal, and physiologic factors—not just diet and exercise. At Avara Medical, we approach weight loss as a medical condition that deserves individualized evaluation and care. Our goal is to identify contributors such as appetite dysregulation, insulin resistance, hormonal imbalance, or metabolic slowdown and guide treatment accordingly.
Common Factors That May Contribute to Weight Gain
These factors can make weight loss difficult even with consistent lifestyle efforts.
Appetite and satiety dysregulation
Hormonal imbalance
Insulin resistance or metabolic dysfunction
Chronic stress and cortisol elevation
Age-related metabolic changes
