A member asked:
My baby is now 1 year old and i still have armpit fat. how long does it take to reduce?. can exercise reduce the armpit fat?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: Your armpit fat may be accessory breast tissue. Are you still breast feeding? If you are, the tissue under the arm will stay enlarged along with the normal breast tissue as long as you're breast feeding. Once you stop breast feeding, the normal lactating breast tissue will decrease in size as well as the accessory tissue under the arm. Ask your ob/gyn to take a look.
