Dont know if you also have thyroid issues but thats what usually causes nail issues. If you take Vit D that will improve your nails. As has been discussed in another thread this morning a lot of people are deficient in this Vit, so perhaps ask your Doc for a test to see if you are too.

I have clexane when pregnant and it's never bothered my nails x

My nails are fine too.

You could ask your pharmacist to recommend a multivitamin and mineral supplement which would not interact with warfarin. Wearing rubber gloves when cleaning and doing washing up really helps too. I was getting a bit of a problem with nails on my dominant hand last year and as soon as I started with the gloves they recovered.
