Can i do cycling while trying to conceive?

Question

I cycle almost daily for my fitness and we just started trying for a baby this month. Now im thoda worried if all that movement is okay during this time. Anyone continued cycling while ttc?

Asha Bajpai · Answer

I panicked and stopped doing everything when we were trying. Later my gynac laughed and said light exercise actually helps blood circulation.

Chhaya Sheth · Answer

Actually, light physical activity is great for fertility. Just make sure you don't over-exhaust yourself.

I remember those anxious days of TTC when even walking felt scary. Don't worry, light cycling is absolutely fine but stop if you feel tired.

Oh god, I can barely roll over in my bed right now, let alone cycle! Keep it to light walks if u can, don't exert yourself too much.

Avoid outdoor cycling where there is a risk of falling or jerks. A stationary gym cycle at a gentle pace is much safer.

My pregnancy app tracker recommended keeping the heart rate in a moderate zone. Stationary cycling is actually much safer to avoid any falls.

Mild cycling is okay if you are already used to it, but don't start any heavy workout suddenly. Listen to your body while trying to conceive.
