About 90% of menopausal women experience some amount of weight gain. It is a natural and common aspect of getting older. It occurs because the body mass increases, as a result of fat deposits. However, weight gain associated with menopause typically involves increased amounts of fat around the abdomen. On an average, women gain between 8-10 kilogram between the ages of 45 and 55, the stage in life when menopause occurs. This extra weight generally does not evenly distribute itself throughout a woman's body. The weight tends instead to accumulate around the abdomen or thighs (Singh et al., 2013).
Postmenopausal women are usually troubled by increasing weight and waist circumference caused by obesity and android fat redistribution it is mostly attributed to estrogen depletion though other factors such as chronological aging and decline in physical activity play a significant role. The deleterious health consequences of obesity and visceral fat deposition after menopause encompass a variety of problems; from dyslipidemia and metabolic syndrome to increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD), osteoporosis, malignancies and mortality (Stachowiak et al., 2015) This emphasizes the need of effective methods for treating central adiposity in post-menopausal woman. No prior studies have investigated the effect of radiofrequency on adipose tissue. So this may add a new physical therapy method for treating this problem.
