Hi ladies,

Apologies if this is all in the wrong place - I'm a bit confused with all this!!

I'm just looking to start my 4th cycle of ICSI in Jan next year. My husband had a failed vasectomy reversal and our 3 prev attempts haven't worked. I saw Dr Coughlan from Jessop in Sheffield who took a million bottles of blood and told me I tested positive for 'heterozygous prothrombin positive allele' and is now suggesting aspirin, clexane and an endometrial scratch for our next attempt. I am a little confused by all of this and I wondered if anyone else had had any similar experiences

Thanks,

K

its a genetic tendency towards 'sticky blood' - look under T for thrombophilia in the FAQ. clexane (and aspirin) are the normal treatments. endometrial scratch is a bit more contraversial
