Fatty is related to infertility

In obese women with ovarian changes, the eggs cannot conceive, according to a study published in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism .

When monitoring obese women, they found it difficult to get pregnant, including young people and regular menstrual periods.

A recent study hypothesized: in overweight people, the environment around eggs has changes, affecting fertility.

" The characteristics of eggs are directly affected by the environment in the ovaries ," said study author Rebecca Robker, University of Adelaide, Australia . Our research has found that the fluid surrounding the eggs of fat women has abnormally high levels of fat and the ability to become highly inflamed, and this affects egg development . '

In the study, Dr. Robker and colleagues also determined the content of hormones and metabolites in oocytes removed from the ovaries. They found that in women who were overweight, the environment of the ovary was altered, particularly the concentration of male metabolites and hormones was very high, which was related to infertility.

According to the researchers, fat causes the sensitive metabolism of eggs and this change is harmful to conception. In addition, inflammation can harm cells and if it occurs with eggs, it will affect the ' survival ' of the fetus.

Dr. Robker concluded: " Everyone knows that obesity causes a change in the fat content of the blood and increases the likelihood of inflammation, affecting general health. Our research shows that obesity is change the surroundings to nurture eggs to grow ".
