Bodybuilder Jerry Ward tragically passed away over the summer at a relatively young age. Now that his wife has revealed his cause of death as pulmonary embolism, I want to discuss it. As an internal medicine physician, during my time working in hospitals I was trained on the acute aspects of PE, as well as other conditions arising from a hypercoagulable state including VTE and DVT. I want to explain how these conditions come about, as well as Virchow’s Triad, the 3 factors related to PE that doctors consider. I also want to cover how TRT and PEDs can contribute to the clotting process, and lastly describe how you can avoid PE and what a management plan could look like.
