• Obesity also contributes to infertility in women who ovulate normally.
• It could also lead to complication during pregnancy like risk of hypertension, gestational diabetes, Cesarean section.
• 30 % to 47% of obese women are said to have irregular menstrual cycles.
• Irregular menstrual cycle is directly proportion to increase in weight.
• Furthermore, it has been demonstrated that weight reduction often leads to resumption of normal menses and increased pregnancy rates.

Obesity is often associated with increased insulin production and insulin resistance, which contributes to hyperandrogenism (increase in male hormones) because insulin is important for the regulation of sex hormone production.

This can be seen in obese women with PCOS, where excess weight gain leads to excessive insulin production, promoting increased androgen secretion and abnormal follicles in the ovary. This results in an overall disruption in ovarian and menstrual activity, causing fertility problems.

The fat released from the omentum (which is fatty layer of tissue located inside the belly) rapidly and constantly travels to your liver, unlike the fat on your thighs, which patiently waits. The processed material is then shipped to the arteries, where it is linked to health risks like high LDL (lousy) cholesterol.

Experts say omentum fat (or an “apple” body shape) is more harmful than subcutaneous fat (like thigh fat, which gives you a “pear” shape) which can increase one’s chances of getting cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes, insulin resistance, Infertility, PCOD, and other Obesity Related diseases.

Cortisol is associated with overeating, craving high caloric fatty, and sugary foods, and relocating fat from the circulation and storage depots to the abdominal area.
