@lbiscorner2300 That’s a really good question. I think it is best answered by a discussion with your doctor. Only your doctor knows your health history and why you are taking blood thinners.
Will you let me know what she/he says?

Hi @lbiscorner2300,
According to his study from 2015,
- Women can take blood thinners, hormones without higher blood clot, bleeding risk, study shows https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2015/12/151222112950.htm

But I agree with @becsbuddy that this is a discussion you should have with your cardiologist to be sure HRT and blood thinners are okay for you specifically.
