About pregnacare max supplement

[trishabhowmik]

Hi ladies, hope all of you are doing well. I am 5 weeks now. I am going through fertility medication for IVF. I started to take supplements pregnacare max after discussing with pharmacist. She suggested it will be best for pregnancy. However, i found in the literature that it will impact with blood thinner as it contains vitamin k. I am taking clexane. Is there anyone taking pregnacare max with clexane for ivf? Needs recommemdations pls.

I took pregnacare original which has vit k with Clexane when I got my BFP. I think I came of clexane approximately at 8 weeks or just before. Didn’t have any issues. Though I was on clexane as precautionary after a couple of failed transfers. Can you contact your fertility nurse and get her to validate if ok? X

I'm on blood thinners and pregnacare and have been throughput my pregnancy x

[trishabhowmik in reply to Ajtart]

Thanks, Which blood thinners are yu in?

[Ajtart in reply to trishabhowmik]

I was in Tinzaparin but they've changed me to Clexane as I developed an allergy. Daily aspirin aswell and have been throughout pregnancy x

[trishabhowmik in reply to Ajtart]

Thanks.. So it was completely fine to take pregnacare with clexane or aspirin.. Did yu discuss with yur dr before taking it?My dr is on leave now so cant contact with her.

[Ajtart in reply to trishabhowmik]

Yes they haven't said anything. My midwife knows what I'm on blood thinners and pregnacare as does my GP. My gp actually prescribed the pregnacare x

[trishabhowmik in reply to Ajtart]

Ok thats great.. Thanks dear for yur help..

[Yellowlove in reply to Ajtart]

Can you get pregnacare prescribed, so you don’t have to pay?

[Ajtart in reply to Yellowlove]

Yes just ask your GP. I didn't know until my friend told me

[trishabhowmik in reply to Yellowlove]

I was on Clexane and asprin throughout my pregnancy and also took Pregnacare everyday. My Dr didn’t have an issue with it and my little one is now 3 and absolutely fine xx

[trishabhowmik in reply to Eswyn]

[trishabhowmik in reply to Eswyn]
