Les hormones, et notamment les hormones sexuelles, jouent un rôle majeur dans la répartition des graisses corporelles. Chez les hommes comme chez les femmes, la graisse tend à s'accumuler différemment en fonction des niveaux hormonaux. Chez les femmes : Les hormones œstrogènes favorisent généralement le stockage des graisses dans les cuisses, les hanches et les fesses jusqu'à la ménopause. [...] Chez les hommes : Les hommes ont tendance à accumuler plus de graisse au niveau de l'abdomen en raison de la dominance de la testostérone. 2, record 1, French, - r%C3%A9partition%20des%20graisses%20corporelles
