Obesity and visceral adiposity are associated with reproductive dysfunction, specifically infertility, problems with ovulation, and decreased rates of conception. Approximately 31% of reproductive aged women in the U.S. are obese. Obese women who become pregnant are at increased risk for miscarriage and pregnancy complications. Infertility treatment using assisted reproductive technologies such as fertility medications, in vitro fertilization or intracytoplasmic sperm injection, is time-intensive, costly, and less effective in obese compared with normal weight women. However, attempts at weight loss to date have been modest at best and the effectiveness of single component hypocaloric diets are questionable. A recently conducted large scale preconception weight loss study in the Netherlands randomized 577 obese infertile women to either a lifestyle intervention prior to fertility treatment or prompt fertility treatment. This study found significantly higher spontaneous pregnancies in the lifestyle intervention group compared to those who promptly received fertility treatment. Additionally, when post hoc analyses were completed on predetermined subgroups, researchers found women with anovulation had more spontaneous pregnancies compared to ovulatory women in the lifestyle intervention group. A few major limitations of this study include: 1) modest weight loss of 4.4 kg and only 38% obtained the minimum goal of 5% weight loss; 2) the study included women with a variety of infertility diagnoses; and 3) limited BMI range of 29-40 kg/m2. More prospective research is necessary to evaluate the effects of weight loss in anovulatory women caused by Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) as there may be larger benefits in this population such as restoration of ovulation and spontaneous conception. Additionally, there has been limited research investigating fat loss after a lifestyle intervention and the impact on ovulation. Fat loss may play a large role as the purported mechanism by which obesity influences ovulation is through insulin resistance and increased ovarian androgen secretion. Similar to other populations in need of lifestyle interventions, women seeking fertility treatment also have multiple barriers to weight management. Infertility treatment centers in major metropolitan cities often draw individuals from large geographical areas including rural dwelling individuals. Our research team has developed an efficacious weight management program that has shown superior weight loss compared to conventional treatment and has successfully been delivered remotely eliminating concerns of access and transportation and may be well suited for this unique population. However, the acceptability of a remote delivered weight loss intervention, attendance at behavioral sessions, compliance with diet and physical activity (PA) recommendations and self-monitoring (diet, PA, weight), as well as the impact of the magnitude of weight loss on ovulation rates in overweight and obese anovulatory women are unknown, and will be the focus of this study. Over a 2 mo. period, 20 overweight or obese women (BMI \> 25 -45 kg/m2, age 21-38 yrs.) seeking initial treatment after 12 mos. of unsuccessful conception (\~ 40 new women/mo.) will be recruited to complete a 6 mo. multicomponent weight loss intervention (WLI). Participants must be willing to withhold infertility treatment for the length of the 6 mo. intervention and have the diagnosis of ovulatory dysfunction (anovulation) caused by PCOS as the primary cause of infertility. In the WLI, energy intake will be prescribed at 1200-1500 kcal/d using commercially available portion-controlled entrées, low calorie shakes, fruits/vegetables, and ad-libitum non-caloric beverages. Participants will be asked to consume a minimum daily total of 2 entrées (\~200 to 300 kcal each, saturated fat ≤ 3g), 3 shakes (\~100 kcal each), five 1-cup servings of fruits/vegetables, and ad libitum non-caloric beverages. Additionally, they will be asked to complete 225 min of moderate intensity PA, and self-monitor diet, PA (self-report) and body weight (home scale) across the 6 mo. intervention. Weekly behavioral counseling sessions (45 min) via Skype will be delivered by a professional health educator (HE) to participants in their homes.
