and extracellular and equilibrium will be maintained. It's a trick used by charlatans.

"full" hysterectomy?: Does a "full" hysterectomy include bilateral ovarian removal or not?  If the ovaries were left in place 15 years ago, then this is the life phase at age 47 when menopause symptoms normally  occur.

Question 6

dose water make people  weight gain?

Nope: As long as your kidneys are normal, and you are drinking a normal amount of water, your body will maintain the appropriate amount of water. Since water contains no callories, it does not become fat, it stays as water and circulates to where it is needed. Excess water will passed in the urine.
