Reasons for belly fat deposition?

The appearance of fat folds in the waist area in women is influenced not only by a genetic predisposition to fullness, but also by stress, age-related changes and hormones, said endocrinologist Daria Nesheva, in Dr. Peter’s portal.

Failure in the work of the endocrine system leads to the formation of the so-called “hormonal abdomen”, while a person does not change his diet, but the waist, face or arms grow fat. Problems with hyperthyroidism, excess growth hormone, or low testosterone levels in the body may be observed.

If obesity is caused by a disease of the endocrine system, it is necessary to treat it in the first place. After the hormonal background returns to normal, body weight will begin to decrease on its own. Of course, provided that the person does not exceed the daily calories and ignore physical activity.

The release of cortisol can lead to the accumulation of subcutaneous fat in the abdomen. This hormone is actively produced during stress.
