What Causes The Increase In Fat Around The Waist?

Hi I am 23 years old and I am very hairy ,got a fair size penis bt nt so big tests so I assume I have high levels of dht, but the problem is my body shape is becomin fat in female fat dominant areas ,pear shaped and no matter what ,I can t lose the wight or it comes bak to quickly down there, my upper body is becomin leaner, my shoulders dropped and my neck and face[even though I have facial hair, my face is smal structured] a female like. So I don t knw if I myt be potential mosaic klinefelter or estrogen dominant ,I don t knw if it will be favorable to increase my testosterone or rather opt for natural progesterone to balance everything so I can have more phenotype muscular features? I m very low esteemed as people laugh at me and it has also affected my social life and career

Hello,

your description probably fits to a person that has no hormonal problems. You've got hair (in male areas I suppose, like the chest, the lower abdomen, etc), you've got a normal penis size but your fat distribution is not very nice for a male. You can contact an endocrinologist for tests (just to be 100% sure). I'm almost certain that the tests would be normal.

This is probably your body structure and you'll have to get used to it. You can affect it by loosing some weight, so that the fat deposition won't be very obvious. Since you're 23 years old, even if you have hormonal problems, it's doubtful that your body will change now. Besides that, no serious person would laugh at anyone because of one's body structure, so please just ignore them. They're not worthy!

I hope you find my comments helpful!
You can contact me again, if you'd like any clarification or further information.

Kind Regards!
