OBGYN 's  Response
Hi.What your DNA Mutation result is showing is MTHFR enzyme defect.It may not have any effect on your pregnancy as it is a single nucleotide polymorphism.You can take this folic acid as it will protect your baby from neural tube defects. you can start prometrium(micronised progesterone) per vaginum for supporting pregnancy. I will advise you to consult your gynecologist as your pregnancy test is positive and due ti previous hisotry of 2 miscarriages, she may like to advise you some extra treatment or tests and other instructions.
Thanks.
