Pregnancy is always accompanied by restrictions, and one should be very careful about procedures that affect the cardiovascular system to avoid the threat of miscarriage. It is this statement that underlies the ban for expectant mothers, and we support it - it is better not to take risks.

There is no medical justification, so feel free to go to the bath with unmarried friends!
