Obesity sometimes can lead to infertility by leading to hormonal imbalance.
Obese women are prone for poly cystic ovary disease.
It can also lead to other medical complications like diabetes, hypertension etc, and these can also affect the fertility.
So weight loss can improve the fertility.
But using drugs to loose weight while trying for pregnancy is not advisable.
Because some of these drugs can lead to side effects according to studies.
And they can affect the baby if pregnancy occurs.
Physical exercise and dietary management are the best ways to loose weight.
Any drug should be used only with doctor's prescription and after verifying FDA approval.
Sometimes FDA can recall some drugs after patients reporting side effects.
Example: http://www.fda.gov/forconsumers/consumerupdates/ucm374742.htm
So full information should be gathered before starting any drug. Take care.
