[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is lovenox used to treat immune disorders? What type?[/quote] Yes, if you have tested positive for any number of APS including cardiolipin antibodies plus things like ANA (anti-nuclear antibodies) which can be a precursor to Lupus. Probably a lot more, but testing positive for other antibodies like thyroid or ovarian can also probably be treated with steroids. These can also be tricky because they can come and go, so someone who was able to get pregnant before might not be able to and it could still be immune related. The APS test for RFU and Reprosource test something like 16 different antibodies. I tested positive for several of them only one of which I had even heard of. I was on various amounts of blood thinners for all 3 of my successful pregnancies partially due to APS.[/quote]
