Regular f/u on valve: Bicuspid aortic valves are one the most common congenital anomalies occurring perhaps in 5% patients. A two instead of three leaflet valve may be at higher risk for aortic stenosis (when this occurs, it does so in 5th-6th decade of life), or aortic regurg. An echo and physical exam will typically suggest these developments. If severe stenosis is present, exercise restrictions/valve surgery neede.

Talk to cardiologist: Any limitations that you may have will depend on how the valves are functioning. A cardiologist can evaluate the valves and advise you regarding any limitations you may have.
