Obesity and Weight Loss on Reproductive Function

Obesity and Weight Loss on Reproductive Function: "The purpose of this study is to examine how obesity and weight loss following bariatric surgery affect reproductive function. The study is particularly interested in how changes in hormones (those produced in the stomach and fat tissue) following weight loss affect reproductive function. Specifically, we propose to characterize reproductive abnormalities in morbidly obese men and women."
