Women with ovarian cysts can practice yoga. Generally, practicing yoga does not cause specific side effects for individuals with ovarian cysts; it neither induces the formation of cysts nor leads to cyst rupture. Therefore, women with ovarian cysts may safely engage in yoga exercises. However, for some women who have relatively large ovarian cysts, there is a higher risk of cyst rupture during intense physical activity, and surgical removal is recommended as soon as possible.
