I'm 10+4 today, fourth pregnancy - previous three resulted in MC's. The furthest I ever got was 6 weeks.
I had a blood test done for thrombophilia and one element of it, has come back saying my Protein C level is low, normal range is 78+ and mine is 68. I have been asked to go back for another blood test tomorrow.
The only thing I did differently with this pregnancy is take baby aspirin each day, which I decided to do off my own back.
Having googled Low Protein C, it seems like its a damn good job I did decide to self-medicate with the baby aspirin as most websites are suggesting it needs to be treated with baby aspirin and in some cases heparin or lovenox.
I wanted to know if anyone else has been diagnosed with this, particularly during pregnancy and what your experience and treatment was please?
Thanks
