How Appetite Changes After Weight-Loss Surgery
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study follows people who recently had sleeve gastrectomy (a surgery that makes your stomach smaller to help with weight loss) to understand how their eating habits, nutrition, and appetite hormones change over time. The findings may help doctors better support patients after this surgery.
