They do say that being overweight can affect the reproductive system, yes. However, that doesnt seem to be stopping anyone here in America.. I would discuss it with your doctor. I gained 20 pounds since my first pregnancy, and I got pregnant just fine with my second.. so I think its probably a case by case basis. I would discuss it with your doctor if its a real concern of yours! Good luck

Over weight and under weight can effect you , me personally if my periods were affected and i put on weight then i would think it was affecting my hormones if your hormones are affected then your ability to become pregnant would .
Be healthy walk 30 min a day eat in moderation all this will help you if you over exercise and diet too much that wont help either , hope this helps.

Depends on HOW overweght you are. If you are slightly overweight I dont think you would have a problem but EXTREMELY overweight women tend to have problems more often than not.

Yes... although only if you are more than a little overweight, underweight actually can cause infertility more than overweight. Obesity however is another story
