Immune Tests

Post by zach »

Hiya folks,

Our doctor ordered some immune system tests after the 2nd m/c (the most recent BFP until wk4).

My wife tested moderately positive for two of them:

APA-Phosphatidylethanolamine= 30.2 (normal: < 16)
APA-Phosphatidylserine = 34.6 (normal: < 16)

a) Has anybody experienced such issues and were successful?

b) Has anybody undergone TORCH tests before repeating the IVF cycles?

Please share any/all advice.
