hi,

thank you for providing the brief history of you.

as you mentioned you took are using vagifem and want to know if DVT is caused because of it.

well , what drugs can react is not a known cause. as most drugs undergo a complete research process. but human body is different in many ways from one to another . the only way to find that if this drug is giving trouble is by stopping it.

for DVT one needs to understand that there is a clot which is blocking the venous drainage system. which can be symptomatically treated by medical unit, but the body needs an internal way of clearing this out by improving the metabolism and also the immune system.

for DVT there are exercises which also becomes useful along with medicine and provides a good support system to the human body to heal.

For DVT exercises related questions you can ask me directly.

regards
