Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Diet, BMI, and various mineral and vitamin deficiencies affect women’s health. At a young age, fertility and reproductive function are affected by nutrition; later in life, menopause and gynaecological cancers are also impacted. The incidence of endometrial carcinomas increases with obesity. During pregnancy, the risk of high blood pressure, diabetes, and preeclampsia also increases with obesity. Interestingly, menopause symptoms can be reduced through the consumption of estrogen-containing plants (phytoestrogens).
This Special Issue encourages the submission of articles focusing on the effects of nutrition, various deficiency states, and body weight on gynaecological and obstetric pathologies and reproductive function.
