Is Flax Seed Intake Safe While Trying For Pregnancy?

Doctor, I am 30 year old , weigh196lb, I am in the process of reducing weight. I am taking flax seed in my diet. My weight is reducing as well. I wanna know will flax seed create any problem when trying to get pregnant? I am also doing jump rope daily 150 times, will it affect my uterus? can I do biking kind of excercises when trying to get pregnant? I have gone through HSG procedure as well, as a result doctor said it could be a muscle spasm or block. So what will be my next step? is it usual to get such report? Did anyone got pregnant with the same situation like me?

Hello,

Weight reduction is a good goal. Flax seeds contain omega 3 fatty acids that are very beneficial during pregnancy. Once you conceive you need to take additional care about the type of exercises you do. But now for weight reduction, you can exercise as you feel comfortable.

HSG or hysterosalpingography is done know the tubal causes of infertility. If the tube is blocked, there are procedures to remove the block like tubal cannulation. In tubal cannulation, a probe is passed from vagina to the blocked site.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Pallavi M., Anesthesiologist
