| Dear Editor, Obesity and its related disorders are becoming a worldwide public health concern contributing to increased morbidity and mortality rates [1]. Obese women, in addition to their similar comorbidities tomen, have fertility-related disorders, which is a less emphasized aspect of obesity [2]. Hypotheses on association between obesity and female infertility entered the medical literature in the early twentieth century [3]. However, recognition of this association dates back to the earlier centuries. In a recent historical note, Levi ben Gershon (1288–1344 CE), a French rabbi, was suggested as the first to have described the relation between obesity and female infertility [4]. Based on the historical evidence, we believe that the association between obesity and female infertility was known to the Greek and Persian physicians much earlier than thought. Hippocrates (ca. 460–370 BCE) seems to be the first to understand that obesity might lead to infertility [5]. Although obesity and related complications were subjects of interest in the Greek and Byzantine eras, the association between obesity and female infertility was not clearly described in the medical manuscripts of these periods [6, 7]. |
