Effect of Obesity in Women

Submit Abstract Register Now

Overweight women are more prone to diabetes and are at risk of cardiovascular disease. Obesity carries the risk of several major tumors in females, severe postmenopausal malignancies, and endometrial disease. It causes high blood pressure, elevated cholesterol levels, atherosclerosis, and can cause coronary artery disease and stroke. Weight shortens lifespan, and emotional stress and female grief are higher risk factors. Increased obesity leads to higher levels of glucose in the body and promotes an increase in type 2 diabetes. Obesity has many negative effects on female health. Being overweight or obese increases the relative risk of diabetes and coronary artery disease in women. Overweight women are at increased risk of back pain and knee osteoarthritis. Obesity adversely affects both contraception and childbirth.

Maternal obesity is associated not only with a high incidence of caesarean section, but also with a high incidence of high-risk obstetric disorders such as diabetes and high blood pressure. Pregnancy outcomes are adversely affected by maternal obesity (increased neonatal mortality and risk of malformations). Maternal obesity is associated with reduced breastfeeding intent, reduced breastfeeding initiation and duration
