Gallstones are clumps of crystallized cholesterol or some pigments in the gallbladder. The condition is common (11% of population) and more commonly observed in females. (Medical dictum is: Its a disease of fat female of forty). Gallbladder is a small sac situated just under the liver and produces bile juice that is essential for proper digestion of fats.

     All the factors that form stone are present in the bile under normal circumstances; however, they are in a dissolved state. If there is increase in concentration of cholesterol or pigments, they crystallize and precipitate out as stones. Factors such as increasing age, pregnancy, obesity, liver disorders, infections can have impact on development of gallstones. Some studies suggest that genetics and heredity factors are at the root of this condition that makes one prone to have gallstones.
