Pregnant after IF

Anyone with homozygous MTHFR C677T?

I just found out that I am homozygous MTHFR C677T.  I am trying to get my lining up for a FET. Can this disorder effect the lining? Also, did you have to be in the Folgard and baby aspirin for a certain time before trying again?  I would love to hear any success stories as well.

Re: Anyone with homozygous MTHFR C677T?

  • I have it as well but as far as I know it didn't affect my lining at all - never heard those two things mentioned together. I was on Folgard and BA - I guess ideally the extra folic acid should be in your system ahead of time, but ask your doctor how much that will matter in planning your FET. Now that I'm pg I'm on Lovenox, although I've had issues with unexplained bleeding so I have no idea if it has to do with the Lovenox; so far baby is doing ok.

    Good luck!

  • I have it. I was on Lovenox (40cc), aspirin and extra folic acid, both while cycling and now. My MFM didn't think Lovenox was necessary, but I chose to continue it.

    As far as I know, it should not affect your lining at all. My lining was "beautiful" per RE.

  • I have it. My lining was always perfect for all my transfer even before starting all the meds so I don't think it should affect it. I was on Lovenox (40cc), BA and folgard. 

    I stopped taking BA at 16 wks, still taking folgard and just switched from lovenox to heparin. 

    Good luck!
