Risk factors of skin tags
Many underlying causes can lead to the formation of skin tags, including:
Genetics
Skin tags can affect both men and women, especially if they have parents or siblings who have them. Women, especially after menopause, are more prone to the growths that arise as a result of hormonal imbalances. Hormonal changes during pregnancy cause more skin tags to appear. Women with PCOS may also have a high risk of skin tags due to hormonal imbalance.
