A member asked:

I am ovulating and wondered if avoiding the pool would be a good idea since my husband and i are hoping to get pregnant.?

6 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

No: It is not necessary to avoid a pool. Some say that you should avoid sauna/hot tub range temperatures though. Good luck!
