AbstractAs the rates of obesity continue to rise across the world, there has been an increasing resort to bariatric surgery amongst the options for treatment. Through the reproductive lifespan, between menarche and menopause, women might benefit from this surgical intervention, which may have a bearing on other aspects of their health. The consequences of bariatric surgery have been reported and evaluated from various perspectives in obstetrics and gynecology. Fertility and sexuality are enhanced, but not all gynecological diseases are ameliorated. There are also psychological and behavioral sequelae to be cognizant of. With multi-disciplinary and responsive care, most post-bariatric pregnancies have satisfactory outcomes. The effects of bariatric surgery on the babies conceived thereafter remains a subject of interest, whereas the possible effect on the climacteric is speculative.
