If fat on your buttocks is proportional to weight gain in other areas of your body, you do need to give special consideration to fat in this area. If you gain weight disproportionately on the buttocks, it may indicate that circulation in this region is stagnant. The lymphatic congestion that results causes you to gain weight. Potential causes might include blockage in the lower abdomen, perhaps from bloating, water retention, uterine fibroids, fat itself, food stagnation, or even candida in the hip joint.
Any kind of excessive vasodilation due to inflammation, fungus infection of the feet, and general toxicity can cause
To reduce excess fat in a particular area, it is important to reinvigorate circulation. Mssaging the area frequently is helpful. Try to notice if you have poor alignment or posture in that area.
Increase bitter taste through greens like dandelion and kale, as bitters purify the blood. Other blood purifiers like enhanced turmeric , red root and manjistha can help cleanse the thick kapha blood at the root of stagnation and poor circulation. Depending on your constitution, possibly add heating spices as well like cinnamon and saffron.
Disclaimer: Conditions such as 'Fat on buttocks' that cause tissue changes could be serious and should be checked by a medical doctor.

Ayurveda strengthens the body while opposing disorders. It takes a holistic,
systemic approach that looks at the whole body. Ayurveda
shows how to interpret signs and symptoms of imbalance, and how to address them
using diet, lifestyle adjustments, and herbs. It shows a person how to optimize their health on a continual basis. You can't
take the doctor home with you, but you can take Ayurveda home with you.
Ayurveda is the most advanced and easy to use home system for self healing.
HOW DOES AYURVEDA WORK?
Ayurveda starts by identifying your body type,
which identifies certain tendencies in your body to get sick (as well as identifying your strengths).
It uses body type to determine the likely root causes of your disorders.
Next, Ayurveda analyzes the nature of your disorder.
It fits all your signs and symptoms into a pattern, expressed as a combination of biocharacteristics (gunas).
For example, you may have a heat disorder, a cold disorder, or an oily disorder, etc.
This simple categorical approach shows you how to correct systemic imbalances and strengthen your body as a whole.
On Joyful Belly, we've created an extensive categorization of food so you can easily match food to your imbalanced biocharacteristics.
By eating an optimal diet that balances your biocharacteristics, your whole body is strengthened
and the conditions that created the disorder are removed. Once the root causes of the disease
are removed, the disease lessens in strength or disappears altogether. Additional remedies -
such as herbs and lifestyle practices - focused on the specific disorder, can greatly enhance
your healing.
