I started using PM a while back I was on it for about three months It causes a DVT in my calf. A DVT is a blood clot. Has this happened to anyone else and what alternatives would I have as I am now scared to go back on PM

What dose you were on btw and for how long? Did you take anything else?
I was taking 500 mg twice a day for about three months

I have had good results with fenugreek, saw palmetto, and fennel. Fennel is a natural blood thinner and helps convert T->E. If your on blood thinners don't be taking anything without talking to a doctor first.
Thanks for your reply. This happened a while back Nothing to do with covid and I am no longer on blood thinners Thanks for the suggestions as well
DVT are very dangerous. My DVT turned into a pulmonary embolism and I had 10 blood clots in my lungs. The doctor was surprised that I was still alive. Fenugreek is safer when applied on the skin as an oil. Its slow, but has reduced side effects. IMO, you also want to check your blood sugar and blood pressure when taking any of these herbs.
For blood clot prevention take Serrapeptase and Nattokinase. Arthur Medical sells the best on the planet. I’m surprised more girls who are taking high risk choices with estrogen are not taking these enzymes. Also Natokinase is an aromatase up regulator.
