hi
am 24 years old , am overwieght and i want to use rope jumping to loose wieght but i've been told that jumping can affect my productive system and it can cause changes in uterus so i will never be pregnant in my life, they say it can cause it to fall down.is that true?

Well I've jumped on trampolines, done a lot of jump roping, etc. and I'm on my fifth pregnancy.

I wouldn't worry about it. Being overweight is more likely to affect your fertility than jumping rope.

I have never heard that, I have only heard it is excellent cardiovascular exercise.  If that was the case all the girls who jump roped throughout school in gym class would have reproductive issues, and that is not the case. Good luck with your weight loss!
