What Are The Side Effects Of Circumferential Lift?

I had a circumfrontial lift in August 2009 after losing over 120 pounds. My recovery went well but have been noticing something drastically changing in myself over the last 8 months. I have been having obsessive and compulsive sugar craving that are intense once i start ovulation and doesn t disipate until my cycle is done. I have spoken to some people and they say the stress of the surgery could be a result of adrenal failure, but I don t understand why it would take over a year for these symptoms to start? Do you agree with this?

Dr. Hanif warmly welcomes you!

Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic. I have carefully worked through your case, and can well realize your health worries. Being your physician, I want to assure, I will take care all of your medical concerns.

Although I don't agree completely, I suggest you to consult an Endocrinologist. It isn't so simple as it looks like to be.

During ovulation and menses the body needs some extra glucose, these being very energy consuming processes. In such situations hormonal fluctuations cause the body's demand for extra glucose to be fulfilled. Your's are not being done properly.

We need to evaluate the cause. It may be in pituitary, or adrenals, or somewhere else. It needs to be ruled out by the endocrinologist.


Hope I answered all of your questions. In future, if you need further, detailed and quick assistance on any health issue, feel free to ask me a question by writing my name as a reference in the start of your question. I will get back to you right away. Have a wonderful time ahead.
