Does obesity in women generally lead to infertility?

Infertility is a very serious problem for female friends, but now the phenomenon of infertility among female friends is increasing, and the reasons are also varied, so the treatment of infertility has brought considerable challenges. Many female friends have no way to completely cure infertility, so they need to look for the problem from themselves. Most female friends who have no effect on treatment are caused by excessive obesity, because obesity is also a cause of infertility.

Many systemic diseases can cause female infertility. Obese women will experience irregular menstruation, dizziness, back pain, fatigue, chest tightness, sallow complexion, frequent or thick leucorrhea, cold and dampness, phlegm obstruction, spleen deficiency, and some women also have frequent urination, white tongue coating, and a stringy and slippery pulse, which can lead to infertility.

Experts say that although there are many obese women who have given birth, obesity can affect conception and lead to female infertility, which is a real situation. How does obesity in women cause infertility?

Obesity can be divided into simple obesity and abnormal obesity. The former is caused by eating too much and exercising too little, and has little impact on the body in the short term. In addition to obesity, abnormal obesity is often accompanied by other organic diseases. For example, central obesity caused by brain tumors and sequelae of encephalitis may have genital hypoplasia; obesity caused by hyperfunction of the adrenal cortex may present with features such as moon eyelids and buffalo hump; obesity caused by diabetes and some other rare special types of obesity may also present with polydactyly, hirsutism, drowsiness and other symptoms.

Since estrogen easily accumulates in the fat tissue of obese women, leading to estrogen metabolism disorders, many obese women suffer from menstrual disorders, with an incidence rate of 56.2%, with infrequent menstruation being the most common. The basal body temperature was single-phase in 52.1%. Moreover, most obese women also have other endocrine abnormalities of one kind or another, and the chance of female infertility is significantly increased. Therefore, obese women who suffer from female infertility should undergo detailed examinations to rule out abnormal obesity due to special reasons. Only after the original disease is fundamentally resolved will there be hope of pregnancy.

In fact, there are many reasons that can cause infertility among female friends. Even irregular menstruation may lead to infertility. Not only abnormal obesity can lead to infertility. This is often due to other diseases, such as brain tumors and some reproductive organ maldevelopment, which can completely lead to infertility. Moreover, many patients have no way to discover this situation in time.
