Medically supported weight loss - for women
Tailored to your health and your stage of life.
Menopause, PCOS or changes in everyday life can raise new questions about weight. Together we look at your health and your goals and discuss which support makes sense.
Current appointments, duration and prices are shown in the booking system.

- Online across Austria, video when useful
- German and English
Your story matters - at the next appointment too.
Your first consultation and all follow-ups are with me. Together we set realistic goals, taking your previous experiences and your everyday life into account.
What we take into account in your weight consultation
Not every change in weight has the same cause. What matters is which factors actually play a role for you.
PCOS and metabolism
Polycystic ovary syndrome can affect the cycle and metabolism. Metabolic health is what counts - not automatically weight loss.
Thyroid and weight
An underactive thyroid can contribute to weight gain, but it does not explain every change in weight. Any current treatment is taken into account.
Family planning needs its own perspective
Planning a pregnancy
A planned pregnancy belongs in the consultation early on. Current medication, health risks and suitable next steps are adjusted accordingly.
Pregnancy
During pregnancy the focus is on appropriate weight development, not on deliberate weight loss. Questions about this belong with your antenatal care.
After birth and while breastfeeding
Recovery, sleep, nutrition and breastfeeding shape the planning. We discuss realistic steps, without pressure to reach a particular weight quickly.
More than the number on the scales
Goals depend on your starting point. Besides weight, waist circumference, blood pressure, blood sugar, blood lipids and your wellbeing can also matter.
- Weight and waist circumference
- Blood pressure and metabolism
- Strength and mobility
- Everyday wellbeing
