Weight loss for men

- with expert support and medical treatment

Why men gain and carry weight differently

Many men tend to store fat around the abdomen, known as visceral fat. This type of fat builds up deep inside the body, around vital organs, and increases the risk of heart disease, diabetes, and hormonal changes. At the same time, low testosterone, stress, lack of sleep, and social pressures can make weight harder to manage.

Knowing what’s really driving the problem helps you tackle it more effectively - and sustainably.

Erectile dysfunction and obesity

Erectile dysfunction and obesity can be closely linked, as excess body weight may affect hormones, blood flow, cardiovascular health and metabolic function. Understand the biological factors that may contribute to erectile problems, how conditions associated with obesity can influence sexual health, and why weight, overall health and erectile function are often interconnected.

Venous insufficiency and obesity

Venous insufficiency and obesity can be closely linked, as excess body weight may affect circulation and increase pressure on the veins in the legs. Understand how obesity may contribute to symptoms such as swelling, heaviness and discomfort, and why weight, blood flow and vein health are often interconnected.

Skin problems associated with overweight and obesity

Overweight and obesity can affect the skin in several ways, increasing the risk of irritation, infections and conditions such as intertrigo, acanthosis nigricans and hidradenitis suppurativa. Weight loss may reduce friction and improve metabolic health, which can help improve some skin problems.

Joint pain linked to excess weight

Joint pain and osteoarthritis are more common in men living with overweight or obesity. Weight loss can reduce strain on the joints, while adapted physical activity and appropriate treatment can help reduce pain, improve mobility and support a more active life.

Reduced male fertility and obesity

Reduced male fertility can be linked to overweight and obesity, as excess body weight may affect hormone balance, testosterone levels and sperm quality. Metabolic health, diet and physical activity can also play an important role, while weight loss may improve fertility-related factors for some me

Fatty liver: causes, risks and treatment

Fatty liver is common in men and is closely linked to overweight, obesity, insulin resistance and other metabolic risk factors. Weight loss, healthy lifestyle habits and treatment of underlying risk factors can reduce liver fat and support better liver and metabolic health.
