Enhancing Fertility and Understanding Pregnancy after Bariatric Surgery

At Al Taie Center, we recognize the profound impact bariatric surgery can have on every aspect of your health, including your fertility and pregnancy journey. Our comprehensive approach is designed to support you through these transformative experiences, ensuring you are informed and cared for at every step.

Fertility after Bariatric Surgery

The journey to fertility can be complex, especially for women with obesity, where factors like chronic anovulation and disruptions in the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis can play significant roles. Although obesity doesn’t universally affect fertility—many women with obesity do ovulate regularly and achieve successful pregnancies—it’s associated with challenges such as high IVF cycle cancellation rates and a lower number of mature oocytes.

Bariatric surgery offers a beacon of hope. Studies, including those examining the effects of bariatric surgery on endocrine functions, highlight significant improvements in fertility outcomes. Notably, women who have undergone bariatric surgery have shown promising fertility indicators, with an increase in conception rates, particularly among previously infertile PCOS subjects.

Effects of Bariatric Surgery on Male Fertility

Men also experience fertility benefits from bariatric surgery. Weight loss post-surgery is associated with an increase in total and free testosterone levels, a reduction in estradiol levels, and improvements in sex hormones and sex hormone binding globulin. This hormonal shift suggests enhanced fertility, marking an important consideration for couples looking to conceive.

Pregnancy after Bariatric Surgery

Pregnancy outcomes improve significantly after bariatric surgery. Studies report increased pregnancy rates and successful conceptions in women who previously faced infertility challenges. These findings underscore the positive impact of bariatric surgery on overcoming infertility barriers, with a notable percentage of women achieving pregnancy post-surgery, including through methods like laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy and intragastric balloon procedures.

Bariatric Surgery and Oral Contraception

An important consideration for women of reproductive age undergoing bariatric surgery is the choice of contraception. The efficacy of oral contraceptives, particularly reliant on gastrointestinal absorption, may be affected post-surgery. Women with a BMI over 40 kg/m^2 are generally advised against combined oral contraceptive pills due to higher failure rates and increased risk of venous thromboembolism. After bariatric surgery, especially bypass procedures, the absorption issues necessitate a careful selection of contraceptive methods, favoring options like the progestogen-only pill.
