Understanding the Link Between Weight & Fertility

For men and women alike, excessive weight can negatively affect their ability to have children in many different ways. In women, additional pounds may result in hormonal imbalance resulting into ovulation problems and irregular menstruation both of which reduce fertility.

Obesity is directly related with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) that makes it difficult for most female patients to conceive naturally. On the other hand, overweight males can suffer from poor sperm quality as well as low sperm count due to unhealthy lifestyles such as alcohol abuse and drug addiction; therefore making them less fertile. Consequently, shedding off some excess pounds might help improve the chances of conception through increasing the quantity and improving quality of sperms released during ejaculation.

It is important to achieve and maintain a healthy weight before and during pregnancy for the sake of both mother’s and baby’s health.

Obesity during pregnancy increases the risk of such complications as abortion, arterial hypertension, gestational diabetes, and even fetal death. Moreover, infants born to obese women have higher chances of becoming overweight in childhood or developing obesity later in life along with other adverse health consequences.
