Understanding Fertility Challenges: Dr. Niruben Rajasagaram Explains the Role of Weight Loss in Reproductive Health

Fertility challenges affect many individuals and couples, with a range of factors influencing reproductive health. One often overlooked aspect is the role of weight in fertility. Dr. Niruben Rajasagaram, an experienced weight loss surgeon, highlights how achieving and maintaining a healthy weight can positively impact reproductive outcomes.

Research indicates that excess body weight can interfere with hormonal balance, ovulation, and sperm quality, making conception more difficult for both men and women. Women with obesity may experience irregular menstrual cycles or reduced egg quality, while men may have lower testosterone levels and decreased sperm count. Addressing weight-related factors can therefore be an important step for couples trying to conceive.

Dr. Niruben Rajasagaram notes that while lifestyle modifications such as diet and exercise are foundational, some individuals may benefit from medical interventions, including weight loss surgery in Melbourne. Bariatric procedures, performed under the guidance of a skilled weight loss surgeon, can provide significant and sustained weight reduction, which in turn may improve fertility outcomes and overall health.

"Weight management is not only essential for general well-being but can be a essential factor in reproductive success," says Dr. Niruben Rajasagaram. "For patients struggling with fertility and obesity, a structured, medically supervised weight loss plan can make a meaningful difference."

Weight loss surgery is generally recommended for individuals with a body mass index (BMI) over 35, or over 30 in the presence of comorbidities such as type 2 diabetes or hypertension. Beyond improving fertility, patients often experience additional health benefits, including reduced risk of cardiovascular disease, better blood sugar control, and improved mobility. Dr. Niruben Rajasagaram emphasises that surgical interventions are only one part of a comprehensive approach, which also includes nutritional guidance, psychological support, and ongoing medical monitoring.

It is important for patients considering fertility and weight-related interventions to seek guidance from experienced professionals. Dr. Niruben Rajasagaram works closely with multidisciplinary teams to provide personalised care plans, ensuring that each patient's reproductive and general health goals are addressed safely and effectively.

Couples or individuals facing fertility challenges are encouraged to discuss their health, lifestyle, and weight concerns with a qualified specialist. Understanding the complex relationship between weight and reproductive health can empower patients to take informed steps toward achieving their family planning goals.
