Obesity is associated with numerous reproductive health disorders, including infertility, menstrual irregularities, and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in women. Excessive body fat can interfere with the hormonal regulation of the menstrual cycle, leading to anovulation, which is a primary cause of infertility. Additionally, obesity raises the risk of pregnancy complications such as gestational diabetes, preeclampsia, and fetal growth issues. In men, obesity has been linked to lower testosterone levels and sperm quality. Addressing obesity through a balanced diet, regular exercise, and weight loss can help alleviate these reproductive health risks. For women, achieving a healthy weight can help restore hormonal balance, improving fertility and reducing complications during pregnancy.
