I am trying to get pregnant. My overall health is fine, the only problem I have is with my veins. I got this from my mother, and also I have some extra weight. I am trying to lose it, but since I often have phlebitis, I take coumadin. Can you tell me if I can take this drug while trying to conceive, and while pregnant too?

No, you should not take this medicament, because coumadin and its derivates penetrate easily through placenta and could cause severe damages to the embryo (abnormal growth of bones, for example). This is why these drugs should not be taken. I guess you will have to find some new alternative; it would be helpful if you could loose that extra weight.
