The number of women of childbearing age having overweight or obesity problems keeps increasing globally. Besides diabetes, hypertension and other chronic conditions, these women may develop metabolic disorders of sex hormones, manifested by irregular menstruation, infertility and obstetric complications. Bariatric surgery offers prominent weight loss and improves obesity-related conditions. Women patients also benefit from elevated chances of pregnancy postoperatively. However, the timing of pregnancy for obese women after surgery has impact on the effects of weight loss surgery, pregnancy complications, delivery outcomes and long-term prospects of mother and child. This article reviews the clinical studies on the timing of pregnancies after bariatric surgery, weight loss results, as well as risks and outcomes.
