Low-dose aspirin and heparin in fertility care

Blood-thinning treatments used only for specific diagnoses.

Medicines & protocols

Low-dose aspirin and low molecular weight heparin have a clear role in antiphospholipid syndrome and in some obstetric indications, but routine use to improve implantation is not supported by good evidence and is not risk-free. These are prescription decisions, never self-started.

Also known as: blood thinners, LMWH, aspirin for implantation
