Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am struggling with weight gain after having my ovaries removed. I cannot take hormones as I am takingCoumadin. I am also on dialysis. How can I safely lose weight and keep healthy when I am so restricted with diet, and exhausted all the time! I am 39 years old, and I work full time then have dialysis 3 days a week
The use of coumadin can restrict the diet because it can interact with a number of different types of foods.
There are different diet plans for weight loss mainly the low carb/high protein diet and the low calorie diet. In some cases, the low carb can interact with the warfarin
It may be best to consult a nutritionist to determine which is likely to cause problems with your medication.
I hope this helps
