Hi there :
13 weeks pregnant mum to be here.. had my first lots of blood tests last week following my first scan!
Had a letter today saying that I have "Low PAPP-A hormone levels'
I have had the tests for Down's syndrome, Edwards syndrome and patau's syndrome which has all came back as low risk.
On this letter, it's mentioned I will be put on 150mg of aspirin and to contact my GP for the prescription.
A couple of questions - had anybody had low PAPP-A before and have any more info?
I have read that people normally take 75mg so I'm wondering why it's double the dose?
I don't have a midwife appt until the end of this month so I'm just a little bit anxious and confused about whether I should start taking them straight away.
It says I'm also going to be put under the care of a consultant obstetrician and offered a series of scans, again, the letter gives no more information so I presume I will just have to wait for more letters?
Apologies for the long thread, anxious pregnant lady
