Diet and nutrition

It sounds like you're experiencing stretch marks and localized fat on your inner thighs despite being underweight, which can be attributed to several factors. Stretch marks often result from rapid skin stretching or hormonal changes, while localized fat distribution can be influenced by genetics and hormonal factors, even in individuals who are underweight. Muscle growth from weight training might also contribute to visible fat deposits. To address these issues, consider consulting a specialist for a tailored assessment. Additionally, using specific oils and undergoing lymphatic massage in the area, after discussing with a dermatologist, ...may also improve the appearance. Combining this with a balanced diet and an appropriate exercise routine can support overall health and skin elasticity. Read more
