Stars get larger when they stop fusing hydrogen into helium because of the abundant amount of helium and no more hydrogen. It may shrink a little at first due to gravity, but eventually helium fusion starts, acting against gravity and expanding the star.
Why do stars get larger when they stop fusing hydrogen into helium?
