Baby aspirin to help conception

[Sef89]

Spoke to a nutritionist/dr of reproductive medicine today and she firmly believes low dose aspirin can help implantation as it gets the blood flowing, anyone had success with this..

Haven’t had any success yet, but after 4 miscarriages this year I’ve started taking a low dose of aspirin each day from ovulation.

I don’t think I’m pregnant this cycle but will be be doing this every cycle now.

All tests have proved normal so this is the only thing left to try!

@Sef89 following this because I'm considering taking baby aspirin, dud they advise what strength to take? I've got 300mg aspirin tablets at home but I'm thinking that's way too much which is why I haven't started using them...

I take a 75mg tablet each day. This was what my fertility specialist recommended I try

My fertility doctor put me on 75mg a day to help implantation/blood flow to the uterus. We did get pregnant that cycle.

Ahh ok, an you buy the 75mg tablet in store or is it prescription only? I can only find 300mg in pharmacies 😕

I bought mine in co op. Have seen them in tescos too.

@Moominmiss ok great, thank you. Does it say gastro-resistant on the front of the box?

Hi all can I just ask when you are taking them? Throughout the whole cycle or just after ovulation? Ive read such conflicting advice online. Thanks ☺️

I took these, although no luck that cycle , it resulted in having a longer period that month - although I've read so so many success stories it's worth a try as everyone is different.

I bought 75mg from Tesco in a yellow packet!

Best of luck :)

No success stories here but wanted to mention to those with 300mg aspirin tablets already, I think you can just cut them in to quarters

When do u all start taking them? After ovulation? And do u stop when ur period arrives and start again after ovulation?

After 3 recurrent losses I started taking 150mg aspirin from 3dpo and I’m now 26 weeks ❤️

@2020wish - aw lovely news 💓 I’ve had 3 losses too all very early on around 4 weeks. Were yours further on? Did someone advise you to take the aspirin or are u independently taking it? I’ve considered taking 75mg but don’t know if I should wait to see what the docs think, so far they’ve not mentioned it but I’ve read how beneficial it can be x

Around 5/7 weeks. I asked my doctor about but she wouldn’t prescribe it as it wasn’t in her spec of knowledge got recurrent loss. So I asked her to put it in my file anyway that I would be taking 150mg daily myself and to ensure I wasn’t contradicted. So I started it myself after my own research . When I had my 6 week scan and 12 week scan both the midwife and consultant mentioned starting me on aspirin and there please to know I had already started myself on it. 150mg daily is the new uk guideline amount . It used to be 75mg

Sorry for typos didn’t proof read lol

Ah glad I found this thread! I've had one miscarriage at 11w and then a chemical- so is it aspirin every day from ovulation for the entire pregnancy? And if AF arrives do you stop taking it and start again at ovulation?

Start after u have ovulated. Advice has been mixed between after ovulation or when u get a BFP. I took it 3 days after ovulation to help with lining Of womb for implantation. I’ve been advised to take it until 36/37 weeks and I take it at night before bed.

And yes if af comes stop taking it and restart the cycle again after ovulation x

Great thank you! And congratulations x

I took 75mg/day after ovulation for the first time the cycle I conceived. I did also have a HSG that cycle so I'm not sure which helped but something worked after 12 cycles

I have the 75mg at home, 150mg sounds a lot. Because I don’t track ovulation should I start taking it a couple days after my positive ovulation test? x

@Whatthefudgecake - so sorry to hear about your losses x

Anyone successful with this at 40 or over...

Thank you @BriocheBuns x
