If i'm underweight is it a problem for pregnancy ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Many severely underweight women will not be able to get pregnant in the first place due to a lack of ovulation. Even if pregnant, nutritional issues will prevent the baby from developing and growing to an appropriate for gestational age size.(IUGR)
