Its a shame I have to mention this. Hormones and Health

Now, this may be my first post but I just made an account so I can inform people about some information I think they really need to know. I know, I'm a man on the women's health forum, but I know a lot of things that many women don't know about some of their hormones and body functions. I'll be completely honest here.

I notice a lot of you diet and exercise to stay healthy or to look beautiful, but it might not be giving you the looks you expect from it. For one, spot reduction is a myth, you burn fat all over your body. Where your fat is stored is determined by genetics, and hormones.

You can't change your genetics but you can change your hormones naturally without taking any form of shot, pill, or hormone replacement therapy. Estrogen is a hormone that makes you store more fat around the hips, breasts, butt, and outer thighs. It will also increase libido, and bone density. The places I mentioned where estrogens cause you to store fat will result in a curvy body with a low waist to hip ratio. This is a healthy way to store fat, especially for your heart. Fat in these location is also good for developing fetuses inside the womb. If you have narrow hips, its not because your hip bones are narrow, but because you don't have enough fat stored on the side of your hips, and your outer/upper thighs.

Estrogen will also increase subcutaneous (fat just under the skin) fat which will make your skin softer, and cover the bony areas of your body such as your hands and feet. This type of fat will also insulate you so you won't feel so cold all the time. Another benefit of hip/butt fat is that most men such as myself are attracted to curvy women.
