Conditions
Thrombophilia covers conditions that raise clotting risk, including antiphospholipid syndrome. Testing is not routine in fertility care and is generally reserved for specific histories such as recurrent pregnancy loss or previous clots. Treatment decisions belong with a specialist, because blood-thinning medicines carry their own risks.
Also known as: clotting disorder, factor V Leiden, antiphospholipid syndrome
