A woman's weight can significantly affect their reproductive health, affecting fertility, pregnancy, and hormonal balance, and complications such as gestational diabetes and preeclampsia. Healthy weight management is crucial during pregnancy and postpartum, with realistic goals such as breastfeeding and physical activity. Additionally, maintaining a healthy weight significantly reduces the risk of chronic conditions like type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and certain cancers. The importance of promoting self-acceptance and encouraging intuitive eating is also crucial.
