A member asked:
Why i should not lift weight after a d & c before 2 weeks even though i feel fine?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bleeding: Lifting weights causes an increase in veinous pressure, which can cause bleeding in any open wound. Until you are healed from the d;c, there is an increased risk of bleeding with severe straining.
