How metabolic health issues impact fertility

Obesity is now one of the fastest-growing causes of infertility, and metabolic health is reshaping what the path to parenthood looks like for millions of people.

Conditions like obesity and insulin resistance can mean longer family-building journeys: more IVF cycles, higher rates of multiples and C-sections, and longer recovery times. Those outcomes add up, both in out-of-pocket costs for members and in claims costs for the employers who support them.

Inside the guide, you'll learn about:

  • Metabolic health's impact on male and female fertility
  • Lifestyle adjustments to improve metabolic health
  • Modern medical advancements in the field, including GLP-1s
  • The business benefits of improving members' metabolic health
  • And more

Download the guide to see how supporting metabolic health can improve outcomes for your members and your business.
