Welcome to MTHFR.Net.
You are here at MTHFR.Net because you are in need of help or someone is.
You’re in the right place. Truly.
Dr Ben Lynch, me, is very passionate about getting MTHFR into the media and increasing awareness of this very serious gene mutation.
If your doctor or loved ones are not taking you seriously on your MTHFR mutation, I am.
Let me say one thing and hear me clearly:
Knowing if you or a loved one has the MTHFR mutation is a blessing. It is not bad news. It is very positive.
Why??
Because knowing you have it means you can do something about it!
Let’s get to doing something about it.
In order to get the most out of MTHFR.Net, please do two things first:
- Share Your Story on MTHFR.Net - contribute and share your story. In order to increase awareness of MTHFR mutations, we need to demonstrate that many are in need of support with MTHFR and the seriousness of it. The more you share, the better. You will not be judged here – only supported. Please do share your support for others as well by commenting.
- Take the MTHFR Survey – provide specifics for Dr Lynch. Again, the more information you provide, the better Dr Lynch can serve you.
Now that you’ve shared your MTHFR story and have taken the survey (Thank you! 
), let’s provide some information for you on MTHFR in guided fashion.

I’m in my early 40′s have 1 healthy 15 yr.old and had 5 miscarriages after my healthy child. I tested positive for inherited Thrombophilia with MTHFR. I am heterozygous. Dr. Alan Beer,who has since passed away did the tests. At his suggestion other family members were tested. My father,brother, sister and my son are allpositive for hterozygous inherited thrombophilia. I was told to just take a folic acid supplement and a baby aspirin as a result for my long term health. What should me and my family particularly my son be taking as daily supplements for optimal health considering this? We have given up trying for anymore children after the standard Lovenox/babyaspirin/additional folic acid approach. My last physical showed I was a little high for B12. We’re not trying to get pregnant anymore. I take a Super b complex supplement just b/c of the inherited Thrombophilia mthfr issue.Again knowing we have this, what vitamins and supplements should we be taking on a daily basis for optimal health and is there anything out there in the way of vitamins/supplements we should be avoiding. I apologize for any typos this was sent from my smart phone.
Hi my name is Denise i am 37 yrs old. I have had 28 miscarages, one live birth she is now 12 yrs old. The pragancies end around 9 to 12 wks. So right after i find out i am pregant i lose the baby. It has been really hard emotional and physically. My sister also has this problem she was tested and with blood thiners was able to have 4 wonderful kids.she had i believe 18 miscarages total. I only have state ins. they would not allow me to be tested. so i have went on with my life. Then on Dec. 3rd 2011 I had a stroke. I do not have high blood pressure, My sister told the doctors but they weren’t really listening, but I was scared so i had my daughters doctor run the test on her and sure enough she has it also. So now I am tring to get my doctors to run test on me. I have been looking online trying to answer some questions, thanks to you i finally found some. Some that i didn’t know to ask, like the antacid, I have always had bad stomach probles Thank you for this website i hope to learn a lot more, and i told my sister about it also.
