This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This study is testing whether a 12-week exercise program can help improve heart and metabolic health in women who had pregnancy-related high blood pressure. Women who develop high blood pressure during pregnancy have a higher risk of heart disease later in life, and this trial is exploring whether exercise after delivery can help reduce that risk. The study will compare women who do the exercise program to women receiving standard postnatal care.
Women who experience high blood pressure during pregnancy are at increased risk for heart disease in the future. Doctors aren't yet sure whether exercise in the months after delivery can help protect these women's hearts, so this trial is designed to gather that evidence.

If you are assigned to the exercise program, you will attend three supervised exercise sessions per week for 12 weeks. Each session will include moderate-intensity aerobic exercise (like brisk walking or cycling), strength training, and pelvic floor exercises. The program will be tailored to your fitness level and monitored by staff. Before and after the 12 weeks, you'll have your heart function, blood pressure, fitness level, and body composition measured, and you'll answer questions about your mood, sleep, and overall quality of life.
