I Believe Lipodyhstrophy Is Caused By The Meds.
I do believe that the weight gain from Lipodystrophy is caused by the medication. I was officially diagnosed in 1989 but did not start meds until 1999. I never had Lipodystrophy until I went on the meds. It pretty much happened within 6 months.
yes, this a known fact with HIV meds. some people do not know this.
I also have this condition from my HIV meds. Skinny arms and legs with veins protruding.
Lipodystrophy in people with HIV can be caused by several factors, including:
- HIV Medications: Certain antiretroviral therapies (ART) are associated with lipodystrophy.
- HIV's Effect on Metabolism: The virus itself can affect the body's metabolic functioning.
- Genetics: Individual genetic factors can also play a role.
