What does it mean to have a medium risk for vte in pregnancy? just seen it on my maternity notes....

Talk with MD: You need to discuss this with your MD. Pregnancy alone increases the risk of blood clots, so if you have some abnormality in your clotting factors, it could put you at an even higher risk, and you may need to be on blood thinner.
