    Abstract:
    Reproductive health professionals who care for adolescent girls are often confronted with the issue of obesity either through specialty reproductive health concerns or as the primary providers of gynecologic or obstetric health care for young women. There are some significant health concerns that result from obesity in girls; therefore, this review summarizes the epidemiology, evaluation and management of adolescent obesity, focusing on issues pertinent to young women's health care.
