Hormones/Menopause
Hormonal imbalance, especially in the menopausal age, is the main explanation behind the gender-biased occurrence of cellulite. [4] Primary hormones responsible in this case are estrogen, thyroid hormone, insulin, and noradrenaline. All these hormones deal with the metabolism of fats differently and imbalance in secretion, production, or effectiveness of either one can result in this fat-associated condition.
