What Causes Skin Tags?

Skin tags usually show up in areas where there is friction and rubbing of tight clothing (so being overweight puts you more at risk).  Sometimes an increase in hormones, such as when women are pregnant can cause an outbreak of skin tags.  Skin are generally more frequent in women due to these reasons. 

Skin tags are considered benign and not associated with any major medical condition. Skin tags are commonly found on healthy people and unhealthy people.

But in all truth, no one really knows exactly what causes skin tags. In summary, the following reasons may play a part in the occurrence of a skin tag:

• Chaffing and irritation from skin rubbing together or clothing rubbing against skin
• High levels of hormones, i.e.. while pregnant
• Insulin resistance (diabetes)
• Human papilloma virus (wart virus)
