Question regarding cycle.....

CariLiz · 02-22-2007, 09:28 AM

Okay maybe some of you ladies can help. I am an egg donor and have done this a couple of times, but I wasn't working out regularily then. I usually workout 5-6 days a week and rotate form doing a fast walking on a steep incline on the treadmill and then I do low weights with high reps including abs. I am on Lupron now, but starting my stims tomorrow. At what point do I have to stop working out if at all???? I thought for some reason I could cont my workout except for the day of retrieval and 2 days after....Does this sound right???? Any help would be great!!! TIA.

I was under the impression that you had to stop working out when you start stimming.

You could post this question on the IVF & High Tech forum where the majority of people stim so you can get more answers.

Your best bet is the RE though. I'd call him.

Good luck,

CS

It is not a smart idea to continue to exercise because you are at high risk for twisting an ovary! Not a fun thing!! You have to not even walk too much before or even 2wks after your e/r or you could really cause some damage to your body!
