Blood Thinners during FET

3 replies

Hi Everyone,

My husband and I have been trying to have a baby for more than 2 years. We are currently on our last set of genetically tested embryos. With my previous unsuccessful FET and chemical pregnancies I had early symptoms such as tiredness, breast tenderness etc. now on our second FET with 2 embryos I feel absolutely nothing. I am terrified that this one is failing as well. I am currently on a blood thinner injection everyday (lovenox) because the theory is that I was getting blood clots preventing pregnancy. I am wondering if the blood thinners could reduce or mask typical early pregnancy symptoms? Has anyone had this experience?

@VeekM I'm sorry I don't have an answer for you, but wanted to say I'm sorry you are going through this. I've had two failed fresh transfers and know the anxiety of the wait for testing. You might get more responses if you post this on the infertility forum and there are lots of ladies there going through or have been through ivf and may have experience with using blood thinners x

I'm on blood thinners and did fresh transfers. With my failed and chemicals I had typical early pregnancy symptoms. I'm currently 20weeks and felt absolutely nothing during my 2ww, so was shocked to get BFP. I was on blood thinners for every cycle and at least 12 months prior to starting IVF.
