In vitro fertilisation (IVF) is a technology that mimics the natural way to get pregnant and in so doing, it is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle to support the process.
This includes going about your usual routine for exercise while being cautious about certain high-impact activities that could potentially interfere with the process. Specifically, activities like heavy lifting, high-intensity interval training (HIIT), and other high-impact exercises that could strain the body and potentially affect the success of IVF.
This article by New Hope Fertility specifically gives you the ‘Do’s and ‘Don’ts’ for exercise, and recommends low-impact exercises such as walking, yoga, and swimming, which can help reduce stress and promote overall well-being, without negatively impacting fertility treatment outcomes.
