A member asked:
I have a large ovarian cyst. my obgyn says it is the size of a grapefruit. i forgot to ask is it ok to exercise? i dont want it to rupture.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Okay to exercise: Usual exercise is not likely to affect the cyst. For good health - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, low fat milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. Practice safe sex.
