The circumference of the thigh generally needs to be measured at the thickest part of the thigh, such as the junction between the buttocks and the thigh.

Measuring the thigh circumference is just a relatively common rough estimate, and there may be some differences in the correct range measured by different doctors. When measuring the thigh circumference, the patient should adopt a supine position, or choose to stand, etc. After measurement, a comparison of both sides can be made to ensure measurement at the same level.

Under normal circumstances, the circumference of the thigh is usually around 11 centimeters, but it needs to be judged according to individual constitution and gender. For those with a more overweight body, it may be significantly higher. It is advisable to increase physical exercise activities such as aerobic exercise and reduce the intake of high-calorie and high-greasy foods to improve the situation.
