Weight loss surgery is a huge change for your body to undergo… So how exactly does it impact your fertility and chances of conceiving in the future? Let’s find out!
Today I’m joined by Accredited Practising Dietitian Lara Mathers, who specialises in weight loss surgery, to dive into the effects of weight loss surgery on nutrient requirements, fertility, and your chances of falling pregnant later on!
We discuss the dietary changes and nutrient requirements after weight loss surgery, bust three of the most common myths around the different surgery options, and discover whether weight loss surgery makes it more difficult to conceive down the track!
