Hello there! Skipping rope keeps your heart healthy and has positive effects on your legs, arms and core muscles. In a normal female it is NOT going to have ANY
ADVERSE EFFECT on the uterus or the ovaries. The only concern is injuries to the lower limb joints(especially knee & ankle)due to repeated impact on a hard surface.
So, to keep it short, have no worries on account of hurting the uterus/ovaries.
Merry skipping! All the best!
