Belly Fat Buildup After Menopause – Homeopathy Remedies

Post-menopausal belly fat is primarily a visceral fat accumulation driven by declining estrogen levels, age-related metabolic slowdown, insulin resistance, and chronic stress. Hormonal shifts after menopause alter fat distribution toward the abdominal region, disrupt appetite regulation, and increase inflammatory and metabolic risk factors.

From a homeopathic perspective, effective management requires individualized case-taking that evaluates metabolic, endocrine, and emotional patterns before selecting suitable constitutional remedies. The remedies outlined below reflect this holistic approach to addressing belly fat buildup after menopause.

Menopausal belly fat is often linked to hormonal shifts, slowed metabolism, emotional stress, and constitutional tendencies. Homeopathy approaches this concern by addressing the individual constitution along with metabolic and organ-level support. Below are commonly considered remedy groups used in homeopathic practice for belly fat buildup after menopause.

Likely Constitutional “Deep” Remedies

• Calcarea carbonica 200 – Fair, flabby, chilly women with easy fatigue, anxiety about health and future, craving eggs and sweets, tendency to weight gain and flooding menses or menorrhagia.
• Graphites 30 – Fair, fat, chilly women with delayed or scanty menses, constipation with large stools, oozing cracked skin eruptions and marked tendency to weight gain around menopause.
• Sepia 200 – Sagging pelvic organs, bearing down, indifference to loved ones, irritability, better from vigorous exercise and dancing, possible brown chloasma and hot flashes.
• Lachesis 200 – Talkative, jealous, intense women with left sided complaints, intolerance of tight clothing at neck/waist, hot flashes relieved by perspiration, often with high BP or headaches.

• Natrum Muriaticum / Staphysagria / Ignatia 1M – For strong grief, humiliation, or suppressed anger centered around menopausal or marital transitions.

Organ Support and Obesity Focused Remedies (Adjuncts)

• Phytolacca berry Q– Acts on glands with obesity, rheumatic diathesis, palpitation and dyspnea on exertion; used in mother tincture as a “fat reducer” in homoeopathic obesity protocols.
