How do Antiphospholipid Antibodies Affect Pregnancy?
Antiphospholipid antibodies can significantly impact pregnancy outcomes. They are linked to recurrent miscarriages, pre-eclampsia, intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), and stillbirth. The presence of these antibodies can lead to abnormal blood clotting, which can obstruct blood flow to the placenta and fetus, resulting in adverse pregnancy outcomes.
