12 Medifast Weight Loss Symptoms & Side Effects - 2
4. Women's Issues
Rapid weight loss may cause an increase in the level of estrogen in the bloodstream. This in turn may possibly affect menstrual cycle regularity, change PMS symptoms, and/or increase fertility. Please contact your Ob-Gyn if you have any concerns or questions.
5. Loose Skin
Some individuals may experience loose skin on the program (due to rapid weight loss). Incorporating exercise into the program can help improve muscle tone. Just make sure to start slowly and gradually increase time and intensity.
Some individuals may require plastic surgery to help with loose skin.
6. Feeling Cold
Some individuals may feel cold on the program - a result of the lower caloric intake. Try a Medifast hot product, and make sure to carry around a sweater or jacket.
