Not all obese patients are selected for bariatric surgery. Only those with BMI of >40 or >35 with co morbidities such as Hypertension or Diabetes Mellitus are eligible. There is an argument for obese individuals with lower BMI too but evidence for the same is awaited.
Recently hypogonadism and sub fertility in men was added to the list of co morbidities, which are likely to benefit from bariatric surgery. However controlled clinical trials are awaited(1)
P.S. know your BMI by using the blog's tool on the right side of the page.
