Research Advances of Maternal Obesity and Reproductive Health
With an escalating global epidemic of obesity,the prevalence of obesity among reproductive women continues to rise,adversely impacting female reproductive health.It has been widely reported that mater-nal obesity has profound effects on oocyte and embryo qualities,as well as fetal and offspring development.This article aims to elucidate the influence of maternal obesity on reproductive health from three aspects:oocyte qual-ity,embryo and fetal development,offspring health,and proposes potential interventions by integrating reported mechanisms to improve poor reproductive performances and offspring disease caused by maternal obesity,and con-sequently promoting eugenics.
