A fertility organisation in Britain is saying that severely obese women should be barred from having National Health Service fertility treatment until they have lost weight.According to new guidelines from the British Fertility Society (BFS), obesity reduces the chances that a woman will conceive naturally and decreases the possibility that fertility treatment will be successful.
The society says that those who are judged obese rather than severely obese should be "encouraged" to slim if they want fertility treatment and obese women could be banned from IVF until they lose weight.
The BFS says obesity increases the risk of complications during fertility treatment and pregnancy and endangers the health and welfare of both mother and child.
