Lipedema Resources

Lipedema is a condition in which adipose (fat) tissue grows abnormally and forms painful nodules. It seems to be more common among people with connective tissue disease like EDS. But, due to bias and stigma, it is grossly under-researched, so we just don’t know yet why people with lipedema are hypermobile. Please be warned that many lipedema resources are deeply tied to diet culture and may be triggering for people recovering from dieting and eating disorders. I have marked those that are not Health at Every Size (because they advocate weight loss) with a “CW” for content warning.
