Expert Says Obesity Affects Fertility
(Cleveland, OH) -- Being overweight can reduce a couple's chances of becoming pregnant. Dr. Tommaso Falcone, an infertility expert at the Cleveland Clinic, says obesity often leads to issues with insulin control, which leads to problems with ovulation in women. According to Dr. Falcone, obesity can impact fertility for both men and women. He says the good news is that once the weight starts coming off through diet and exercise, the chances of conceiving go up. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that over eleven percent of women struggle with fertility. |
