Background: Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) is a major issue for women's health. Acquired and heritable thrombophilias are associated with RPL, this association could reflect a general prothrombotic phenotype rather than a specific thrombophilia. Antithrombotic intervention has therefore been assessed for RPL. Results: Two large randomised trials with untreated control groups showed no benefit from antithrombotic treatment with LMWH and low dose aspirin in women with RPL. These trials had insufficient power to exclude an effect in women with underlying thrombophilia, 3 losses, or late losses. Conclusions: Antithrombotic intervention should not be recommended for unexplained RPL in general. There may be specific groups such as those with an heritable thrombophilia, or with three or more losses, or second trimester losses that might benefit and where further trials are required. Further there is a need to consider the benefits of LMWH on implantation such as in women undergoing assisted conception therapy.
