Mthfr- Thrombophilia- Factor V- homocysteine levels- Heparin- I"M SOOOOOO CONFUSED!?!?!?!? I had a few miscarriages and finaly 1 doctor suggested testing for thrombophilia. The test showed I have a homozygous Mthfr mutation but the factor V and factor VIII results showed up "Normal". I was told to take folic acid every day but I still had another MC afterward so someone suggested I may need Heparin- Someone else told me that if the factor 8 levels were normal I don't need heparin. IM SOOOOOO CONFUSED- Can someone help me make sense of all this??????? (Ps I do have healthy children already, but PLEASE dont tell me to "be happy with what I have and give up" we really want another baby).

Summarized question: Could anyone explain what does Mthfr- Thrombophilia- Factor V- homocysteine levels- Heparin means?
