The MTHFR-Miscarriage debate

Does MTHFR in and of itself lead to a higher miscarriage risk? Or is it only when MTHFR actually manifests as higher homocysteine levels that it presents a risk? Here's a clear overview of the current debate on this topic in the medical community.

  3. I waited and it was very painful and I wish I would have done it the other way

  4. i had 3 miscarriages. my 4th pregnancy was when the dr discovered i have MTHFR. i was on progesterone suppositories for my 1st trimester and baby aspirin & bed rest for the whole pregnancy. i was induced at 39 weeks and almost needed an emergency c-section due to late decel's. my boyfriend and i have been discussing having a 2nd child but the more i read about MTHFR the more i worry... my last pregnancy was so hard on me and the delivery was really hard on my son. im worried that if we try again, we wont be as lucky. i dont know if i can physically/emotionally handle another miscarriage (especially if it were to happen past 8wks) and i dont know what i would do if something were to be wrong with the baby. i had no idea some of the risks were spina bifida! or down syndrome! omg!!! im scared. has any one ever faced any of these birth defects? i really need some advice....

  5. I’m Stephanie Brown, I was diagnosed with Hepatitis B 4 years ago, I lived in pain with the knowledge that I wasn't going to ever be well again. I have used several antiviral medications, but this could not fight the virus of me rather I got side effects of fever, muscle and joint pain. After  spending so much money on antiviral drugs but I never get better. I made research on the internet for herbal medicine. AS I was determined to get my lifestyle back and to be able to do things I am restricted from doing, I saw a lady’s post on how Herbal Dr. JAMES cured her of HIV with his herbal mix medicine. I contacted the same Doctor through his email....Drjamesherbalmix@gmail.com....we spoke, I told him all that I have been going through, and he told me not to worry that everything will be better again, so he prepared his herbal mix medicine and sent it to me through DHL courier company and told me the usage, after 21 days of completing the herbal medicine, I was totally free from Hepatitis B, I went to see a doctor for a blood test, After taking a sample of my blood for the test the result came out negative, I just can’t deny that I’m the happiest woman on earth this very moment, I’m so happy and thanks to Herbal Doctor JAMES,He also told me he cures  diseases   such as Alzheimer's disease, schizophrenia, Autism. Bipolar disorder,  Shingles, Melasma, Underactive thyroid, Melanoma, Cancer, Weak Erection, Wart Remover, HPV, Herpes, Fibromyalgia, HIV, Hepatitis b,Liver/Kidney Inflammatory, Epilepsy, Fibroid, Diabetes,COPD, Back pain, Nephrotic syndrome,Infertility.Cardiovascular diseases.lung diseases,Thyroid disorders ,PCOS,Contact him on his email and get rid of your diseases, he is a good  man  Email....Drjamesherbalmix@gmail.com
