ParagardÂ® is a copper-releasing device that is placed in your uterus to prevent pregnancy for up to 10 years. Do not use ParagardÂ® if you have a pelvic infection, get infections easily or have certain cancers. Less than 1% of users get a serious infection called pelvic inflammatory disease. If you have persistent pelvic or stomach pain, or if ParagardÂ® comes out, tell your healthcare provider. If it comes out, use back-up birth control. Occasionally, ParagardÂ® may attach to or in rare cases may go through the uterine wall and may also cause other problems. In some cases, surgical removal may be necessary.
Running stairs provides an intense calorie burn, torching up to 885 calories per hour for a 130-pound person. The exercise doesn't require any special equipment or an expensive gym membership, and it helps you tone muscles throughout your lower body.
Walking at face paces âforces your body to move in ways it wasnât designed to move,â thus increasing internal friction. Obviously, faster running burns more calories but walking is still a great way to burn off calories. The point is to do something that challenges you without leaving you exhausted. Check out the RunKeeper app for your iPhone to track your speed and calorie burn for your exercise.
