A member asked:

I have been having recurrent miscarriages.i tested weakly positive for lupus anticoagulant. can i have a successful pregnancy on baby aspirin?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: Low dose Aspirin is not an effective therapy for this issue. You need to be on subcutaneous heparin. See a rheumatologist or hematologist for appropriate treatment.
