Can I go for a walk or take a stroll after intercourse around the time of ovulation?

Under normal circumstances, light walking or strolling after intercourse during ovulation is permissible, but strenuous exercise should be avoided. A detailed explanation follows:

After intercourse during ovulation, gentle, rhythmic walking can promote systemic blood circulation, relax both body and mind, alleviate the stress commonly experienced during the preconception period, and help stabilize physiological conditions. Mild ambulation does not interfere with sperm–egg union nor hinder subsequent implantation of the fertilized egg, thus posing no adverse effects on conception efforts. Following intercourse, pelvic blood flow becomes more active and the body is relatively more sensitive; therefore, high-intensity or vigorous exercise may cause abdominal jostling and excessive pelvic congestion, disrupting normal physiological balance—thereby impeding successful implantation of the fertilized egg—and potentially leading to fatigue, abdominal heaviness, or discomfort.

For daily walking, maintain a slow, gentle pace and limit duration appropriately—avoid prolonged walking—to minimize physical fatigue and sustain a relaxed, stable physiological state, thereby supporting optimal preconception health.
