Women Sterility :
Indeed, studies have shown that women obesity influences the metabolism of estrogens and androgens, which are in the fatty tissue.
Obesity leads to a hyperinsulinism which is not very compatible with fertility and has an impact on many other functions needed for reproduction, mainly the hypothalamus and the pituitary gland. Of course, there is no need for alarm: a slight overweight does not lead to infertility, and it is not true to say that all obese women are unable to conceive children, but those whose body mass is above the healthy weight should consider balancing their weight if they have a problem of infertility.
In any case, overweight can also cause miscarriages and morbid complications during pregnancy. Why not then be doubly careful! A balanced diet coupled with exercise can make all the difference.
It should be noted also that a weight below the body mass can cause as many problems as obesity, by affecting menstrual cycles and the normal functioning of the ovaries: women whose body mass index is less than 17 might have 1.6 times more difficulty in terms of conceiving. |
