Obesity can cause many serious diseases. This not only increases the risk of heart disease and diabetes but also increases the chances of getting gynecological diseases.
In recent research conducted in Britain, scientists have said that obesity can also cause problems related to reproductive health for women.

• They included 2,57,193 women in this research.
• All of them were European and their age ranged from 40 to 69 years.
• Their health data was checked with the help of the UK Biobank.

• Research found a connection between obesity and several reproductive health disorders.
• These include polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), menstrual bleeding, uterine fibroids, and pre-eclampsia.
• PCOS is a hormonal disorder in which women have problems related to menstruation. These include irregular bleeding, late periods, increased facial hair, etc.
