MTHFR gene mutation results
I have had three consecutive losses and have sought the advice of a specialists. My OB had me do some bloodwork ahead of my appt. My results came back today and as far as I can tell everything is normal except I tested positive for one of each gene. The labs call it a compound heterozygous of the gene mutation. I know atomic always recommends taking folate for this reason but just wondering if anyone else was actually tested for this after a loss and what is means for my chancing of carrying full term and what can be done to help if anything and what those things mean for my sway.

While I've never been tested for the gene, I know it really is a matter of supplementing with folate to overcome and you can definitely go on to live births after. It's actually controversial whether the mutation contributes to loss, though I feel that's more because RPL is so unstudied. The good news is folate is sway neutral, so I'm hoping you get your healthy baby girl soon!

Yes many people have been tested for this and gone on to have normal and healthy pregnancies after shifting to folate.
you may also need to eliminate folic acid from your diet as much as is feasible - it's in things like bread, pasta, cereals, and other baked goods and you'll need to potentially axe those things from your diet to be sure you're not getting a buildup of FA in your system.!!!

2 weeks before. Keep in mind that many people think they actually sway blue and WANT to be on them for their sway. OPK are fallible. We use them because it's the best technology we have, but...
