Obesity is one of the most rapidly growing issues in today’s time. It is affecting millions of people throughout the world. Along with other complications, obesity can act in the fertility of both males and females. As a result, it will decrease the chance of your successful pregnancy.
Obesity is a very complicated situation where your body stores extra fats. Over-eating, oily junk food, and a life without exercise are the main reasons for obesity.
On the other hand, infertility is a serious condition where you cannot give birth to your baby. It can be a problem for both males and females.
So,
End number of studies say that women who are overweight face more difficulties in becoming pregnant. In comparison, a woman who is having an average body weight does not experience the same. There is a massive chance of pregnancy loss, also for women who are overweight.
Obesity can instigate irregular hormone issues, as well. Eventually, these issues affect the reproductive cycle. It impacts negatively on your ovulation. It can put you on an irregular menstrual cycle and polycystic ovarian syndrome.
The abnormal hormone secretion can cause you overproduction of insulin as well.
A study conducted at the U.S. National Institute of Environmental Health Science (NIEHS) says that men who have increased body mass index are more prone to be infertile than others. It says that a 9 kgs (20 pounds) increase in body weight increases infertility by 10 percent.
It affects the normal hormone secretion in your testicles, resulting in low sperm production. Eventually, the excess fat present in your body converts testosterone into estrogen, which affects your testicle stimulation negatively. As a result, men suffering from obesity experience abnormal semen.
Obesity affects the production of your gonadotropin hormone. Gonadotropin hormone is essential for sperm production in males and regular ovulation in females. So, it is very critical to develop eggs in women and sperm in men.
Being overweight brings an end number of complications during your pregnancy. If you are overweight, then you will suffer from high blood pressure during your pregnancy. It can lead to insulin resistance in your body. As a result, you will have diabetes during your pregnancy.
Yes, obesity can be a leading cause of miscarriage. Hence, it creates an obstruction among obese women in becoming a mother. The reason can be the following-
Defective implantation of the fertilized egg into the womb as your body becomes resistant.
Low quality of ovum.
Irregular and inadequate levels of hormone secretion disturb your pregnancy.
Though In Vitro Fertilization is the ultimate method to treat your infertility issues yet, couples always choose the option in the end. According to a recent study, the success rate of IVF treatment is lower in women who are obese with more than 35 BMI. The success rate is slightly higher in women who are overweight with 25- 30 BMI or normal weight.
Obese women have a lower success rate, even with the embryo implantation technique. In most cases, they are not capable of becoming pregnant after IVF treatment.
Hence, we encourage our patients to reduce their weight and stay fit before starting In Vitro Fertilization.
Exercise is mandatory for everyone, whether opting for IVF treatment or not. It is the key to staying away from all diseases and complications. It is beneficial in regulating your hormonal imbalance due to obesity in a natural way. So, invest at least 30 minutes in exercise every day to stay fit.

FET is one of the most sought-after fertility treatments at our IVF centre in Ahmedabad for its high success rate and low cost. It involves thawing the embryos from the previous IVF cycle and transferring them to the uterus. The women do not have to undergo ovarian stimulation or egg retrieval during this procedure.
ICSI is an advanced version of IVF, wherein the sperm is directly injected into the egg to ensure fertilization. Our fertility specialist recommends it to couples suffering from male infertility or recurrent IVF failure.
IVF is one of our centre’s most popular fertility treatments. It is a boon for people who cannot conceive naturally. In this procedure, the eggs and the sperm are fertilized outside the body in the lab, and the resultant embryo is transferred to the woman’s uterus.
Now it is possible to preserve your sperm and eggs for later use. With the help of cryopreservation, the eggs and sperm are stored at low temperatures to maintain their viability. This advanced technique is a blessing for people who have to delay having children due to medical or other reasons.
