Brief Summary: We propose a prospective cohort study to assess the effect of the progesterone only contraceptive pill minipill on coagulation parameters known to be associated with risk of thrombosis blood clots in women who are at increased risk for forming blood clots We plan to recruit women with a history of venous thromboembolism VTE blood clot in a vein and women with a history of blood tests which demonstrate an increased risk of thrombosis who desire contraception

Women enrolled in this study will undergo phlebotomy blood draw at baseline prior to starting the minipill one and three months Stored samples will be used to measure D-dimer C-reactive protein CRP antithrombin AT factor VIII free and total protein S fibrinogen von Willebrand factor vWF and normalized activated protein C sensitivity ratio nAPCsr Both groups will undergo a general physical and GYN exam prior to enrollment This exam and the blood testing will be provided free of charge Patients will not be prescribed the minipill after completion of the study and will be advised to consult with their primary care physician or hematologist if they wish to continue this medication
