Is there a way to increase my von willebrand factor levels up w/o meds?

Von Willebrand Dz: The main thing that raises von willebrand factor levels is exposure to female hormones, whether through pregnancy or taking oral contraceptive pills or hormone replacement therapy. Please consult with your hematologist for further advice on this topic.
