My husband and I have 6 living children, ages 9 and under. Suddenly, in the past 5 months, I have had two pregnancy losses, at 20 weeks and 14 weeks, which prompted us for testing. I tested positive for Homozygote MTHFR 1298, as they called it. Is that accurate? We do NOT want to do anyting chemical wise, and anything that could naturally work would be our ideal treatment. What can I possible do without putting anything fake into my system, but increase the chance of a healthy baby next time? Why did it start affecting things now, and not with my other babies? |

Hi Holly – Please read this article on prenatal supplementation as it outlines my thoughts. Listen to the podcast on it as well. Personally, I believe 4 mg of folic acid for those with A1298C homozygous MTHFR mutations is inaccurate. I believe you should be taking recommendations as I’ve outlined plus evaluate your lifestyle and diet closely. There are of course other labs that should be evaluated. As we age, we accumulate more toxins, deplete nutrients, hormones change, diets change, exposures change. Health is dynamic and requires constant maintenance. It’s tricky. |
My story is long and can get pretty involved so I am going to skip many details and get straight to significant life events. I feel once you understand who I am as an individual based on my experiences, you and I will resonate on a deeper level. After all, DrBenLynch.com is not about me - it is about how I can help you.
Life experiences change a person. Or do life experiences create a person?
Bottom line: I am not your typical guy nor am I your typical doctor....
