A bigger part of the female population struggles with weight gain after menopause. Scientists at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center in North Carolina found that gaining weight back after a diet could put women at greater risk of diabetes and heart disease.
On a similar matter, a new research from American Association for Cancer Research claims that obesity and overeating during menopause together promote breast tumor growth and progression.
