Question regarding factor V Leiden and mther blood disorder..
So I just found out that I have both of these blood clotting disorders and my gyno is sending me to a hemotologist, genetic counseling and possibly a fertility specialist??? I understand the hemotologist and I guess even the genetic testing but why the fertility specialist ...I got pregnant both previous pregnancies on the first try????? I got so much info at once I didn't get a chance to ask.....any info would be helpful...TIA

Both of these disorders can cause m/c, and blood clots. Your Dr. might be sending you to an RE so you can be monitored properly in the early stages of your next pregnancy. I also have them and need to be on Lovenox (injectible blood thinner) when I am in the TWW.

I'm sorry I am not familiar with those issues. I just wanted to wish you the best of luck and refer Dr. B, he specializes in immune and recurrent losses, he is an excellent doc and very caring.

I agree with this! I have MTHFR and Annexin and on Lovenox. I have had two past miscarriages, so I started the Lovenox 2 days after ovulation and was monitored by a RE. I had no problem getting pregnant with my previous losses but still went to a RE. They just closely watch over you and they no a lot more in regards to clotting disorders than a regular OBGYN.
Hope that helps!!!! Goodluck!
Please feel free to FM with any questions.
