HIGH: Warfarin is contraindicated in pregnancy due to causing birth defects. Diabetes increases risk of complications, as does age over 40. I would not recommend pregnancy with this list of problems, but discuss with personal physician for details.

Teratogenic: Warfarin and pregnancy don't mix: it's a teratogen, that is, a drug that creates mutants. Be careful.
