Cellulite is generally thought to be a condition more frequently found in women and there is some truth to this. The female hormone estrogen secreted by the ovaries stimulates the storage of subcutaneous fat. With much lower levels of circulating estrogen, men generally have a much thinner layer of subcutaneous fat and, therefore, less tendency to show cellulite. The prominent hormone circulating in men is testosterone, which stimulates the production of proteins. Because of this, men tend to have more dense layers of protein-rich connective tissue within their skin, leading to an overall thicker skin layer. This also reduces the tendency to develop cellulite.
From livestrong website. I'd guess with more estrogen in our food and water supply the number of men with cellulite may increase. Not a Dr though just incase anyone feels the need to discect this claim. |

"I'd say men suffer mine more. It's not me who has to look at it
But heaven help a man who ever mentions it!
For any woman - not just Saint Knickerless. Although none to be seen in that pic

You should see the ones that get binned! I don't care anywhere near as much as I used to over a bit of cellulite, stretch marks etc. I'm quite enjoying getting older and learning to just embrace it all. |
