Weight, Wellness and Fertility

from Fertility Untamed Hosted by Fertility Untamed doctors: Dr Rebecca Mackenzie-Proctor, Dr Sylvia Ross & Dr Devini Ameratunga

Will losing weight before fertility treatment actually increase your chance of having a baby? The answer is more complicated than you might imagine. In this episode, we talk about whether BMI matters, if weight cutoffs at clinics are fair, and the effects that either being underweight or obese can have on fertility and pregnancy. We’ll also dig into practical steps for losing weight, including the fast-moving data around injectables.
