#HerClotStory has the power to protect another woman’s life

#HerClotStory

Share your blood clot story with World Thrombosis Day and help other women recognize the signs and symptoms of DVT and pulmonary embolism before it’s too late.

Every woman’s blood clot experience is different, and every story deserves to be told. World Thrombosis Day has developed a new version of #MyClotStory with questions specifically designed to capture the personal experiences of women who have navigated a blood clot, because the more we hear from you, the more we can help another woman feel seen, informed and less alone in her own journey. Introducing: #HerClotStory

This is a new form with new questions, and even if you have shared your story with us before, we encourage you to submit again. These questions go deeper into what it means to experience a blood clot as a woman and your answers matter more than ever.

Every story becomes part of a global library of lived experience reaching women in more than 190+ countries. You do not need to be a medical expert or have all the answers. You just need to be willing to share what happened to you. Submit your #HerClotStory today and help us make sure no woman faces a blood clot without the support of someone who has been there.

Not a woman, or did your experience fall outside of a women’s health context? We still want to hear from you. Share your story using our general submission form.
