Answer 4

Yes this happens often. This is because being fat can stop you getting pregnant. This is one of the main reasons that overweight people aren't allowed IVF unless they lose weight. Overweight mums are at much bigger risk as are their children. If someone wants a child so badly,then they should lose the weight (as women stop smoking or drinking,or whatever else they have to for the good of their babies) i have seen so many women moan about not being able to have a baby whilst stuffing their faces. I think if it means enough then they will lose weight,but yes this is why when they do they eventually concieve.  

Answer 5

yes bc fat can stop a lot of normal things from happening in the body  

Answer 6

The more overweight a woman is, the more difficult it will be for the woman to get pregnant.  This goes the other way as well.  If a woman doesn't have enough body fat, then it will be difficult as well.
