Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Obviously, Althea changes hormone levels. This will change several other things. Appetite and also perception of appetite. If it is working, then there will be less pain and more activity and therefore more burning of calories.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
