Determinants of Weight Loss and Regain in Men After Roux-En-Y Gastric Bypass: A Retrospective Analysis
RYGB is effective in men, leading to substantial weight loss and improvement in comorbidities. However, early success (achieving a normal BMI) did not guarantee long-term weight stability, as those patients were more prone to weight regain. These findings highlight the need for extended follow-up and targeted support in male bariatric patients to sustain weight loss outcomes.
