https://doi.org/10.14341/omet201713-8
Abstract
Obesity has a negative impact on female reproductive health. The review presents literature data on current views on the etiology, pathogenesis of obesity and its impact on the reproductive health of women. Particular attention is paid to problems arising in women of reproductive age who are obese.
