If I were to try it, it would definitely be on the treadmill (highs here in the upper 90's this time of year). But even on the treadmill, I can barely jog at 4 mph for more than 2 minutes (albeit at an incline). I'm thinking when…

Edited to add: Maybe look into progestin-only BC if you're concerned about the risk of blood clot? Here's a link to get you started.…
