3 INVESTIGATION OF THE OBESE INFERTILE WOMEN History Familial and personal history Diabetes mellitus, HTA, thyroid LED, SAPL Phlebitis, heart, kidney Physical examination Weight, BMI, abdominal obesity+++ Pilosity Cycles, menstruation Ultrasound and radio Hormonal evaluation FSH, LH, E2, P4 PRL TSH. Androgens ++++ Testosterone (T) in first intention, According to the results: -4 androstenedione ( 4) dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEAS) 21-hydroxylase (17OHP) Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG) Metabolic syndrome HDL, LDL, total cholesterol, TG (dyslipidaemia) Fasting Blood Glucose, postprandial glucose test, Hb1ac (glucose intolerance) Insulin (insulin resistance, IR) and C peptide Ferritin, Transferrin Creatinine NUTRITION C-Reactive Protein CRP ADIPOKINES : resistin, PAI-1, adiponectin, leptin CYTOKINES : IL1, IL6, TNF α INFLAMMATION METABOLIC SYNDROME A waist circumference 88 cm for women A blood pressure of 130/85 mm Hg A triglyceride level 150 mg/dl (1.7 mmol/l) A fasting blood glucose (sugar) level 100 mg/dl (6.1 mmol/l) A high density lipoprotein level (HDL) 50 mg/dl or 1.3 mmol/l

4 Impact of obesity on woman fertility? Jungheim and Moley, 2010

5 BMI, MATERNAL BIRTHWEIGHT AND TIME TO PREGNANCY Low/High h birth weight Prematurity impact on TTP Nohr et al., 2009 BMI AND OVULATION Nurses health study 2527 female nulliparous nurses risk 24<BMI<26 Risk X 3,7 for BMI>30

6 BMI AND TIME-TO-PREGNANCY Probability to conceive decreases if BMI > subfertile couples women with high BMI had a 4% lower pregnancy rate/kg/m² increase 1651 Danish women between (Snart Gravid Study) Longer TTP among overweight, obese and very obese women (stronger association among young women aged < 25 years) Longer TTP when weight gain (>15kg) since age 17 Two out of 3 criteria : Oligo- and/or anovulation Clinical and/or biochemical signs of hyperandrogenism Polycystic ovaries

8 BMI AND ENDOMETRIUM O.D IVF/ICSI Bellver, 2008 Role of uterine environment Bellver, 2010 Oxidative stress

9 BMI AND MISCARRIAGE High risk BMI>25kg/m² High risk after ovulation induction Significative in oocyte donation No significative in IVF/ICSI OR,1.67; 95% CI, Higher risk in obese and underweight women! Lower chance of pregnancy More gonadotrophin needed d Lower number of retrieved oocytes Increased miscarriage rate Should access to fertility treatment be determined by female BMI? Maheshwari, 2007

10 BODY FAT DISTRIBUTION Increase of abdominal fat 36 % of women with waist circumference > 88 cm (ObEpi 2009) A 0,1 unit increase in waist-hip ratio leads to a 30% decrease in probability of conception/cycle Zaadstra et al., 1993 NORMAL WEIGHT OBESE SYNDROME Continuum between normal weight and overweight The proinflammatory cytokines : significant prognostic indicators of the risk of obesity, CVD, and the metabolic syndrome in NWO women ADIPOSOPATHY

11 RESEARCH Number of the genes whose transcript abundance is altered in the PCOS oocyte contain putative nuclear receptor binding sites suggesting that pharmacological or lifestyle interventions might correct the molecular defects in the PCOS oocyte and improve pregnancy outcome. The finding of unique gene expression patterns in cumulus cells from the two PCOS subtypes is in agreement with other studies that have found the two to be separate entities with potentially different pathophysiologies. FOLLICULAR ENVIRONMENT Follicular fluid insulin, triglycerides, and C-reactive protein SHBG LOCAL FOLLICULAR FLUID INFLAMMATION High TNFα and low IL-6 mrna expression of obese patients

12 Impact of male obesity on fertility? SPERM QUALITY? Decrease of 1% / years of mean number of spermatozoa OBESITY! Overweight (30-50%) Obesity (>15%) Monitoring national du risque artériel, MONA LISA ; OBEPI 2009

13 BMI AND SPERM Decrease of NMS (quantity) Negative correlation between waist-to-hip ratio and concentration of spermatozoa Increase of DNA fragmentation of spermatozoa (quality) Sperm binding Impact of obesity on offspring health?
