How long should I stay on bed rest after IVF pregnancy?

Pregnancy6 views
After IVF pregnancy, appropriate rest is generally recommended during the first 48 hours after embryo transfer, but strict bed rest is not necessary. Prolonged bed rest may increase the risk of blood clots and is not beneficial for health. Light daily activity, such as walking, is usually fine, while strenuous exercise, prolonged standing, and heavy lifting should be avoided. If your doctor identifies a risk of preterm birth or another special condition, they will give individualized rest advice. Each pregnancy is different, so consult a reproductive medicine specialist.
