I've had two losses in 2016 and I got some blood work done and found out that I also have MTHFR and prothrombin factor 2. I also have hypothyroidism. Due to all these issues my RE suggested a medicated cycle that includes femara, pregnyl trigger, and once I get the trigger I'll start heparin and progesterone until I either get a BFP or AF. I was hoping you ladies might have some stories of success either using these medications or having two or more losses to give me some hope in the new year.
I don't have anything of the above, so can't give you a success story based on that. But I am a proud mummy of Pia due to having the statistics against me. It's an incredible tough road you had, but hang in there! Sending you lots of baby dust xoxo
I haven't had any of those experiences but being on the boards for a while I have read so many success stories after incredibly difficult situations, so don't lose your hope that 2017 will bring you a beautiful healthy baby!

I had three ectopic pregnancies and my first IVF resulted in a miscarraige. They then discovered I have MTHFR and I also found out this cycle I have hypothyroid. I've been on synthroid for my thyroid as well as baby asparin, metanx, and lovenox for the MTHFR this cycle and currently am 12 weeks 3 days with twins! Don't lose hope, all the things you mentioned can be treated! Let me know if you would like any other info or to talk further.

I have a myriad of issues including a blood clotting disorder. I have been on injectable blood thinners since I started fertility treatment. The shots are doable, and if you know they will keep your baby healthy it's very worth it. I believe the treatment protocols for the issues you mentioned are very good. You are on your way!
