How many days should I rest after egg retrieval?
You can resume normal activity the day after your operation if you tolerate it well. Intercourse should be avoided until after your pregnancy test if you have a transfer, or until 1 week after retrieval if you do not have a transfer. High-impact activities should be avoided until your ovaries have returned to normal size.
Is walking good after egg retrieval?
Exercise during the egg retrieval week or after the embryo transfer. Exercise should be avoided throughout the week of egg retrieval. Your ovaries are most swollen at this period, and you are more likely to have ovarian torsion.
