Abstract

The objective of this short communication paper was to address the implications of obesity in obstetrics and gynecology through an evidence-informed integrative overview of literature searched from PubMed database, on disease-specific and treatment-specific effects. Studies demonstrated disease-specific influence of obesity in women with cervical cancer, breast cancer, gynecological cancer (ovarian cancer, endometrial cancer), and treatment-specific influence for procedures such as laparasocopy, fat mobilization system and Jejuno-ileal bypass surgery. There is need for future longitudinal cohort studies in women to explore the predictive factors for obesity and its consequences in obstetric and gynecological health and disease.

Keywords: Metabolic gynecology; Gynecological obesity; Gynecological cancer; gynecological endocrinology.
