Brief Answer: No Detailed Answer: Hi Thanks for your query. High fat around your belly does not stop you from becoming pregnant. Crash dieting is not recommended when you are trying to conceive. If you fail to get pregnant after trying for 1 year, then you may go for tests to find the cause. Hope it helps. Dr Vaishalee
