A member asked:

Can lower abdominal lipomas be caused from having been pregnant and weight gain?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

I don't think so: The cause of lipomas is not completely understood, but the tendency to develop them is inherited. A minor injury may trigger the growth. Being overweight does not cause lipomas. Pregnancy does not cause lipomas.
