Pregnancy : It is , it just requires very close monitoring and regular follow ups with ob/gyn and your hematologist ... You won't be able to take Coumadin (warfarin) during pregnancy but there are other options for anti-coagulation ...

Yes - but w/ caution: Yes-- you can a have normal pregnancy, but you have to talk in detail with your eventual obstetrician and/or your current internist to see why a young 25 y/o had b/l PE's to begin with. Was it all attributable to being on the birth control Rx, or are there other factors such as "hypercoaguable state" that you have, inherited or otherwise, that should be investigated via good history and labs.
