It also aims to describe how well men can predict their BMI category and determine whether weight loss would be an acceptable part of infertility management in overweight or obese male partners. Beliefs surrounding healthy weight and fertility will also be addressed. 2016-06-02T08:44:37Z 2016-06-02T08:44:37Z 2015 Master Thesis Masters MMed http://hdl.handle.net/11427/19888 eng application/pdf Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology Faculty of Health Sciences University of Cape Town
