Physical activity and fertility in women: the North-Trondelag Health Study
Human Reproduction, 10/06/09

We did not, however, see a trend for increased risk of infertility for the submaximal levels of activity. Our results indicate that the possible detrimental effects of high intensity exercise are reversible and not permanent.
