Any type of phytoestrogen/estrogen can raise the risks of blood clots. That doesn't mean they necessarily are the cause, but you should definitely stop taking PM until that issue is under control, imo.

If you do decide to throw caution to the wind and resume at some point you should take something that boosts circulation as well, like cayenne or ginkgo biloba.

After a lot of trial and error, I've found PM to be the trigger for my shortness of breath problems as well, so, if it makes ya feel any better, I can't take it anymore either. Instead, I"m going with the "more dangerous" prescription drugs.

Sorry to hear about your health issue. Merry Christmas to you as well.
