Exercise during meds (not stims)

[Skittles11]

Hi I had a prostap injection on Friday. And on my next cycle I'll be doing an ERA which will involve taking oestrogen and asprin and then progesterone when instructed.

Are there any issues with exercising on this programme? I'd like to be able to do a short jog when I can and some strength training at home with light weights.

Need to reduce inflammation in the body and I believe exercise will help but I don't know the situation when on meds (I know on stims to take it easy but what about on FET type meds).

Thanks to anyone that can offer any insights x

I always exercised, even on stims, and exercised right to to transfer day of my FET including running, light weight workouts, swimming, spin etc. didn’t seem to do me any harm! xx

Yeah, isn't light exercise- walking, yoga etc- good for blood flow in the uterus? I would check with the doctor about the meds but as long as you avoid extremes I don't think it's going to do any harm

Hey, thanks, yes I agree the light exercise is good. I guess I was thinking more about whether I could jog and lift weights x

Hi Sjittles. Walking is fine. We have a free yoga class this week, details further up the page or on the Home Page of the website. Good luck! Diane

Thanks Diane. Yes I am aware of the class thank you. Was wondering more if I could do more active exercise like a short jog when taking FET meds x
