Electric blanket during ivf?

I'm due to have ivf in the next few weeks. I got a heated throw for Christmas and I have used it every evening since for a few hours when watching TV. It's v cosy and relaxing. It does not have a high setting and I am not sleeping with it on.
There seems to be a lot of conflicting advice online with both pros and cons ranging from: keep your uterus warm to avoid at all costs. I'll ask at my next appt but just wondered what people think, to keep using or stop?

Hi Jupiteer, the advise I got from both, acupuncturist and my fertility doctor, was to keep uterus warm before the transfer but not after. No heating, sauna etc. after the transfer.

I imagine it’d make as much difference as the McDonalds fries

Thank you!
@Blendy that made me laugh! And yes probably very true 🤣
