Description
Jose Bellver and co-authors map gut and reproductive tract microbes in infertile women with obesity. Past work linked microbes to both obesity and infertility, with mixed results. The team ran a study at many clinics, taking saliva and stool in person. Fluid from the vagina and womb was taken at the clinic, and microbe genes were read.
The gut ratio once proposed as an obesity mark did not differ by weight group. Some microbe groups were more common in one group than the other. Vaginal and womb samples looked much alike, backing the idea that womb microbes rise from below. A streptococcus-heavy womb profile was more common in women with obesity. The authors say the map may help explain poor outcomes in this group.
