anybody do recurrent m/c testing? it's been a long time since we did and I"m not remembering all of the details. I have to discuss with my dr. but I'm not even sure what to ask.
My RE re-ran all of the clotting panels (and I think a few others) and I came back positive for MTHFR (I didn't test positive 10yrs ago) and I had increased PAI levels (prevents my body from breaking down clots as quickly as normal). He told me that women can develop the MTHFR mutation as they age. I'm assuming since you've done IVF/FET you've already had quite a bit of testing done including an APA panel and chromasmal testing (you and DH). Good luck.

I am so sorry for your loss. I had rpl testing aftere my second m/c. After 15 vials of blood I discovered I had MTHFR. I'm sorry but I can't remember exactly all of the things they tested for. I hope your sticky baby is on its way very soon. big hugs !!!

I'm so sorry for your loss. I had testing done between my pregnancies (both m/c) because it took so long to get pregnant again. I *think* it was similar to a RPL (might have even been a full RPL). I found out I had MTHFR, an autoimmune disease, and Lupus Anticoagulant (clotting disorder, not Lupus) all of which increase my chance of m/c. After the second m/c my RE also had my husband and I have genetic testing done which might not be a bad idea for you to have either just to rule out anything genetic.
Re: Early loss...2 in a row
I know I had some testing done last year but I have no idea of what everything was.
I'm so sorry, take time to take care of you!
