Abstract

We report on a group program for obese infertile women. Sixty-four women completed the 24-week program, which included exercise, information about healthy eating and group discussion sessions. Their mean initial weight was 101.9 +/- 18.14 kg. The mean weight loss on completion of the program was 5.2 +/- 5.11 kg (p < 0.0001). There was significant improvement on ratings of self-esteem and depression. Changes to life-style and health which are known to improve fertility may be a useful precursor to invasive, high technology infertility treatment procedures.
