Unexplained infertility

[Gipsy123]

Hi

I do wonder how many cases of unexplained infertility are actually due to undiagnosed ET and the blood clots that can develop.

Is there any research on this?

When i was trying to conceive in my late 30’s ( I did eventually have a son) my MPN hadn't been diagnosed, but might well have been ticking away.

There are infertility specialists who routinely suggest that patients take a daily baby aspirin, just in case there are clotting problems but this is off label .

Hi Gipsy My daughter had her first baby prematurely and suffered all symptoms of pre eclampsia. I kept suggesting she ask about aspirin and possibly blood pressure medication throughout her pregnancy as to me she was small for dates.. but this was usually rejected as she was told she was progressing fine .. she ultimately was hospitalised at 29 weeks and baby delivered at 34 weeks after lots of medical interventions.

With subsequent pregnancy they did early intervention.. and no problems . She has Raynauds and can be hypertensive from young age but otherwise fit , i think possible other symptoms but as yet has been told by medics nothing to consider .. we are so complicated but when you see symptoms repeated .. an enquiring mind always gives these things consideration.L
