For many women who have struggled to control their weight,
LAP BAND surgery provides remarkable results. This unique procedure is the only reversible obesity surgery and a less invasive alternative to gastric bypass operations. Since LAP BAND surgery doesn't require any cutting or stapling of the stomach or gastrointestinal re-routing to bypass normal digestion, the average recovery time is much shorter than that of other obesity surgeries. If you are committed to developing a healthy diet and a regular exercise routine, LAP BAND surgery can help you reach your weight loss goals.

The Link between Obesity and Fertility
Women who want to have children often find that obesity contributes to fertility problems. Research has shown that obese women have a menstrual disturbance rate that is three times higher than that of women who are not overweight. Losing just ten percent of your body weight can improve menstrual regularity, ovulation, and pregnancy rates.
Obese women who do become pregnant find that excess weight makes pregnancy much riskier. Obesity has been linked to an increased risk of hypertension, gestational diabetes, urinary infection, Cesarean section, and toxemia. There is also evidence to suggest that obesity causes an increased incidence of induced labors, longer labors, and overdue births. After childbirth, obese women are more likely to experience endometrial infection, urinary tract infection, and urinary incontinence.
Many women who undergo LAP BAND surgery find that it is easier to become pregnant after they are at a healthy body weight. During pregnancy, the LAP BAND system can be adjusted to accommodate your increased nutritional needs. After pregnancy, the band can be made tighter so you may continue losing weight.
