A member asked:
Are being overweight and being able to conceive related?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably: Patients that have a high bmi many times do not ovulate. The amount of estrogen in their adipose tissue inhibits ovulation. Patients should try to be within their normal body wt to try and achieve a pregnancy, as much as possible.
