Trouble TTC

Why use baby aspirn?

What is the reasons behind taking a daily BA?  I know to help the blood more along but, do you think that's it?  Do you think it really makes a difference?

  • You should only take daily BA if you are told to by your doctor.  It can cause problems if it is not needed. 

    I take it after ET in my IVF cycles because of my blood clotting issues.

  • Yes, my RE told me to take one a day.  I asked why and she basically said it will help with the blood flow.  Now, according to my acupunturist...he said it's not neccesary.  Ugh!

    I would listen to your RE, he is the doctor you are trusting your care to.  While acupuncture is a great add on treatment, I wouldn't trust them to make decisions about what meds to take or not against your doctor's orders.  Just my opinion.

    This.  I would listen to your RE.  If you don't trust your RE for your treatment, then you need to find a different RE.

  • Ditto what everyone else said. Only take it if directed by RE.

    And while i love accupuncture, keep in mind that Chinese medicine doesn't recognize the importance of aspirin, so he's going to say it's not necessary.

    TTC since 11/09
    me: 39 DH: 36  
    dx: unexplained (ugh) 

    January 2011 - December 2012: 4 cycles w/Clomid; 9 IUIs w/Follistim & Menopur;  two IVF cycles converted to IUI (poor response/dominant follicle) 

    August 2014 IVF (antagonist protocol: Menopur, Follistim, Ganirelix, dexamethasone): 13 eggs, 9 mature, 8 fertilized w/ICSI; 0 frozen, 3 transferred day 5 = BFN

    October 2014 IVF (micro-lupron protocol: mircrolupron, Menopur, Follistim, dexamethasone): 8 eggs, 4 mature, 3 fertilized w/ICSI; 3 transferred day 3 = BFP! Beta 1=121; Beta 2=287; Beta 3 =678. Miscarriage @ 8w2d. :(
  • My Re has me taking it once a day along with my PNV and the other supplements I take.  She said that it can help during the implantation process-  before a placenta is formed, tiny blood vessels are trying to grow and attach to the uterine wall, and having the baby aspirin thin the blood a little bit can help that process.

  • My RE specifically told me to NOT take it because it can cause excessive bleeding and thin your blood too much if you do not need it.  You should check with your doc first to see if they would recommend it for you.
