Running a marathon with the IUD? πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸ’¨

Zoe

Hi all! So I've had the paraguard iud for around 3 years now and I absolutely love it. No problems whatsoever. Currently I'm training for a marathon and as I'm increasing my miles and spending hours and hours running, I'm noticing that things like socks and shoes and even the clothes I'm wearing are causing chafing. It's got me thinking about what's on the inside. Does anyone have any information on running long distances with the iud inserted? Do any marathoners have a preference for BC methods?

Thanks! πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸ’¨
