Does Rope Skipping Affect The Uterus?
Question: I'm 20 years old. As I wish to lose weight I have started skipping just a couple of days ago. I have a doubt whether skipping rope affects uterus or not. My friend said skipping regularly will cause displacement of uterus from it's position. Is it true?? And also from the first day of skipping I've been experiencing leg and hip and knee pain. Is it normal ?? I think it's coz I'm new to skipping.
Brief Answer:
Uterus will not get displaced. The pain is normal.
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
I have gone carefully through your query and understand your concerns. Let me reassure you that skipping will not affect your uterus and will not displace it. Let me also mention that any sort of exercise will leave you with a overall body pain two to three days after you begin doing it. It will go away in another couple of days. It is normal and nothing to be concerned about.
Skipping is a good exercise. But for weight loss there are other exercises like sit-ups, push-ups, planks and brisk walking that need to be done. Merely skipping will not help.
Let me know if I could help further.
Regards
