Obesity & female health

Ovaries

Overweight women are more likely to suffer from ovarian cysts which may lead to the condition called polycystic ovaries. Cysts are small sacs filled with fluid that vary in size. Polycystic ovaries may also lead to menstrual disorders and possibly result in infertility. 

Uterus

Increased weight in women may be accompanied by an increase in oestrogen production. Higher oestrogen levels may increase the likelihood of uterine cancer.
