Hiya, are there any reasons I couldn't start going to the gym again after my egg collection? Obviously not on the day, but like a couple of days after? We're having our embryos PGTA tested, so it'll be at least a month or more before we have an embryo transfered.
This is my 2nd round and I've put on so much weight I can't bear it anymore! I've been walking and doing yoga, but I'm not burning any fat.
Also wondering if I can have a drink a few days after? I can't see any reason why not

I think they advise to be cautious with exercise due to the increased risk to your ovaries getting twisted as they’ll be swollen after going through IVF
as long as no signs of OHSS it should be fine about a week or so later but you do need to give your ovaries some time to recover after being grown way over their usual size and then poked and prodded 🤗 drinking should be fine once you feel well in yourself too! Xx
I just had my 2nd egg collection today and also fed up with the seemingly inevitable weight gain this time around. I was advised by my doctor to wait until your Day 1 which is typically 4-10 days post surgery, assuming all goes well. Hope this helps and wishing you an easy recovery.
