Handbook of Obesity in Obstetrics and Gynecology addresses all
aspects of general obstetrics and gynecology in obese patients,
providing evidence-based guidance for the treatment and management
of gynecological problems and pregnancy-related care in obese
women. The book is a valuable resource for junior doctors,
residents and obstetricians and gynecologists looking for a
comprehensive guide that addresses the most relevant aspects of
obstetric and gynecologic care that are impacted by obesity, an
increasingly prevalent condition. The rising prevalence of global
obesity is of public health concern, hence obese women suffer from
a higher incidence of menstrual disorders, polycystic ovaries,
infertility issues, and more. In pregnancy, obesity is associated
with an increased risk of early pregnancy loss, recurrent pregnancy
loss, fetal developmental abnormalities, thrombo-embolic disease,
gestational diabetes, dysfunctional labor, post-partum hemorrhage
and difficult operative deliveries.
Obesity is a continuing issue around the world and in many
contexts. The growing number of obese people is an increasing
concern for those in the medical profession, and obesity can pose
specific challenges in relation to fertility and pregnancy.
Patients who are obese require specific considerations and

discusses how obesity affects fertility, reproduction, and
pregnancy. Beginning with an exploration of the epidemiology of
obesity, further chapters focus on specific issues related to
obesity and both male and female reproduction, the complications of
obesity during pregnancy and labour, and the long term effects of
obesity. This is the most comprehensive resource to examine the
topic of obesity and reproductive issues, making it invaluable for
