Why We Hit Pause on Workouts During Stimulation🏋️‍♀️
We know how much you love your fitness routine—but during your stimulation cycle, your ovaries are working overtime and growing larger than usual. This makes them more delicate and increases the risk of ovarian torsion—a rare but serious condition where an o***y twists and cuts off its blood supply.
To keep you safe, we recommend skipping high-impact workouts like running, jumping, heavy lifting, or intense yoga until after your egg retrieval. Gentle walks or light stretching? Totally fine.
It’s a short break for a very important reason: protecting your health and giving your cycle the best chance for success.
If you’re unsure what’s safe, our team is always here to help. 💛
