Jacuzzi & Ovulation

If you go into a jacuzzi / hot tub while you are ovulating, will it damage the egg?

Thats kindof funny because I was told not to get too cold, and that I should to do all that I could to avoid getting a chill.

I actually slept with a heating pad set to low on my belly this past month because I am always a little cold.  I ended up with a chemical pregancy, but I am gonna use the heating pad again next month, because in all our years of trying i have never got a BFP - even a short-lived one like i had recently.

I think it all boils down to MODERATION.  Too hot, or too cold - neither one is good.

last month when we did an IUI we were going to lake las vegas for the weekend, I would have been around 5-6DPO & my RE told me to not get too hot, he had said it can damage  the fertilized egg. I didn't end upt pg ;(.........but I REALLY was careful to not get hot, I stayed cool as much as possible.
Maybe ask you DR??????

I would ask your doc, but I know that my RE and my acupuncturist have both told me to try and stay as warm as possible after ovulation, and have encouraged me to use a hot water bottle or a heating pad on my abdomen to encourage implantation.

If you were pregnant, I would say no hot tub, but just trying, I would continue to enjoy life - just dont overdo it.

Thats just me.  If you dont want to go in the jacuzzi, dont!  Simple as that!

I don't think it does any harm... but better be safe than be sorry..  to me, I am not use it while I ovulate or pregnant...

For better answer.. I think the best is asking your medical provider... They can give you a definite answer..

Good luck
