Cook E, Fajardo O, Walden RL, Harvey L. Gynecologic counseling for patients undergoing bariatric surgery: a scoping review. Current opinion in obstetrics & gynecology. 2023 Aug 1;35(35). 321-327.
Abstract
Obesity is associated with several gynecologic conditions. While bariatric surgery is regarded as the most effective treatment option for obesity, gynecologic counseling for patients planning bariatric surgery is limited and often focused on fertility. The goal of this scoping review is to investigate the current recommendations for gynecologic counseling prior to bariatric surgery.
