Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I would like to know why do women become fat during or after pregnancy?

Answered by Dr. Neha Rathod

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Women become fat because of lack of physical activity, exercise, fluid redistribution during and post pregnancy. All these factors cause weight gain.
