Bariatric surgery and weight loss injections

For those women who have undergone metabolic-bariatric surgery (MBS) you should postpone pregnancy until weight has stabilised, typically at least a year (Welsh Institute of metabolic and obesity surgery) 

It is also suggested that weight loss medication such as Wegovy / Mounjaro is avoided while trying to conceive as there is no evidence on their effect on the developing fetus.
