Sedentary lifestyles, which involve little physical activity or exercise, contribute to weight growth and obesity.
Medical Conditions
Certain medical problems and drugs can raise the risk of obesity. Examples include PCOS and antidepressants.
Sleep Deprivation
Inadequate or poor sleep quality interferes with hormone regulation, especially hormones that affect hunger and metabolism.
Childhood Influences
Early-life variables such as mother obesity, newborn feeding methods, childhood food, and lack of physical exercise can all raise the chance of being obese later in life.
Medical History
Obesity risk is heightened by a history of health conditions like hypothyroidism, type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and cardiovascular disease.
