i have just found out i have factor v leiden disorder..

Hi Ladies, just found out i have a problem with my blood clotting too much that is stopping implantation!
its called "factor v leiden"
after all this ime TTC 18mnths i finally have an answer! and i allways wondered why wen i got a bfp it was allways so faint barely there and then it went neg and got AF !
and the dr says its quite fixable with low dose asprin (100mg per day) from cd 1
i am amazed i didnt get this test sooner!
are there any ladies ou there with my disorder that have advice?
i am quietly hoing my FET this next cycle may actually work!! :-)
scared to hope but its the first time i feel a little excited more than scared!!
xoxo

No advice, but just wanted to wish you the best of luck with your next cycle! FX a little bit of asprin each day will do the trick :)

A friend of mine has this and now has 3 children. She was on Claxane I think and was on it through her pregnancies. She came off it a week before she was induced for each.

thanks for the luck miss d :-) xo
and thats awsome to know Nai!!
i had my DD 7 1/2 years ago and didnt even know i had this and it was all fine so its been very strange having such probs!
but im glad i can still have a healthy preg! i cant wait for all this hoping and waiting to finally be over!
just hand over the baby dr lol :-)

Did you also get tested for other thrombophilia? Factor V Lieden is often found with other conditions.

I have MTHFR also one of the thrombophilia blood clotting disorders, only discovered after 5 transfers. I take low dose aspirin daily and also Clexane injections when cycling and pregnant. I think finding this out made all the difference for me. Good luck x

I also have MTHfR. I take activated folate and low dose aspirin daily.

hmmm thanks for the info and encouragment girls :-) xxxooo,
i am not sure if i have been tested for any thrombophilia or MTHfR i have had so many tests i will ask my dr.
i have started taking my asprin and will start clexane after positive test.. now im worried i should start clexane before?
im over all these fertility treatments!
so far im on just asprin 100mg and progynova x3 daily then i add 400mg progesterone 5 days before FET transfer and then i keep up progesterone and add clexane after + test.

in addition im doing fish oil and elevit...
lovely. i reckon if u shook me id rattle :-) hahaha
p.s lionsandbears, where do u get activated folate? xo

I order it from the USA but Thorne make a version you can buy in Oz. Factor V Lieden is a form of thrombophilia. Often one goes with another. The reason I take activated folate is because with MTHFR I don't absorb folic acid, when can cause all sorts of problems.
