How many pounds of obesity can lead to infertility?

Patient's question:

Because of a certain illness, I have been unable to stop taking medication for a long time. Due to the medication, my endocrine system has been affected. Now, I want to stop taking the medication and regulate my body. How many pounds of obesity can lead to infertility?

Doctor's answer:

This obesity will not directly affect pregnancy, so there is no absolute view that a person's obesity to a certain weight will lead to infertility. It is just that relatively obese individuals are more prone to endocrine disorders and menstrual irregularities, which may reduce the chances of pregnancy. If your friend is unable to conceive, she and her partner should go to the hospital for relevant examinations to see what adverse factors are affecting their ability to conceive. In addition to paying attention to her diet and controlling her weight.
