Even at the newer lowered hormonal doses of birth control pills, some women still had clotting on them. Being off them should make a big difference alright. Why not ask your doctor if you can have follow-up blood work done after you discontinue warfarin to check out your clotting time, or any other tests that may indicate future problems. In fact, I'd insist on some follow-up checks.
Did you ever wonder if you were a mouse or rat on the warfarin? ;-)
I remember years ago when I first found out they also gave it as an anti-clotting med to people, how shocked I was. I'd thought it only for rodent control.
