It happens that trousers stop converging at the waist. Often in such cases, men and women think that the problem is in extra pounds and a heavy dinner. But in fact, there are many more reasons.

Dr. Yulia Tolmacheva spoke about this in more detail, reports Gazeta.Ru .

She noted that the most common cause of the problem is weak muscles, which, with low activity, become even weaker, stretch, and lose the ability to properly support organs.

In this case, even if there are no problems with weight, but the belly still "falls out". In such cases, you need to choose exercises that will help correct the situation.

Another reason is an increase in the deflection in the lower back. Hyperlordosis can appear during pregnancy and persist after childbirth.

Sometimes the problem occurs due to overexertion after serious physical activity. Here, therapeutic gymnastics and massage can help.

If fluid accumulates inside the abdomen, it is also impossible to button up clothes. This is often accompanied by weight loss. You should see a doctor immediately.

Tolmacheva also said that trousers can stop buttoning due to formations in the abdominal cavity or pelvic cavity. We are talking about a tumor, the appearance of a cyst. You can't do without examinations.
