This exercise increases blood flow to the pelvic organs, including the uterus and ovaries.\u00a0 This exercise can be done alone or with a partner.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Locate the femoral artery \u2013 which is located just beneath the crease in the groin area, between the thigh and the lower abdomen.\u00a0 It is where the outer area of the pubic bone meets the crease in the upper thigh.\u00a0 This artery has branches to the uterus, fallopian tubes and ovaries.<\/li>\n
  2. When you find the femoral artery, you will feel a strong pulsing sensation beneath your fingertips.<\/li>\n
  3. Apply pressure to the artery.<\/li>\n
  4. Count to 30 seconds when you do this and release your hold on the artery.<\/li>\n
  5. Repeat this three times on each side of your leg.<\/li>\n
  6. This is performed only after the completion of the menstrual cycle until ovulation (or transfer), not in the 2nd half of your cycle.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

     <\/p>\n

    This exercise should not be performed if you are or might be pregnant.\u00a0 In addition, if you are at risk for heart disease, high blood pressure, circulatory problems or have a history of stroke or detached retina, do not perform this exercise.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
