How Does Being Overweight Affect Your Fertility by ekwe552: 8:01pm On Jan 19, 2023
Can obesity cause blocked fallopian tubes
Australia has one of the highest rates of overweight or obesity in the world. We are becoming aware that being overweight has an impact on fertility in addition to its many negative health implications.

Women's fertility is impacted by excess weight.

The menstrual cycle is regulated by a precise hormonal balance. Women who are overweight or obese have greater levels of leptin, a hormone made in fatty tissue. This may affect the balance of hormones and lower fertility.

Through a variety of hormonal pathways, body fat amount and distribution have an impact on the menstrual cycle. The likelihood of having fertility issues increases with increased weight and belly fat.

Insulin resistance, which occurs when the body must produce more insulin to maintain normal blood sugar levels, and reduced levels of sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG), a protein involved in the regulation of the sex hormones androgen and estrogen, are both associated with excess weight, especially excess abdominal fat.
