Typically, exercises that require intense physical activity are not normally recommended when a woman has uterine fibroids as these can cause:
Pain and pressure;
Fibroid growth – we know that fibroids need a blood supply to grow and thrive and while performing certain exercises, blood flow to fibroids can significantly increase and result in fibroid growth which is the opposite of what is intended;
Increased fatigue – symptoms of fibroids can already deplete a woman’s body of strength and energy so intense exercise routines may be too much of an added strain.
