Recurrent miscarriage syndrome and infertility caused by blood coagulation protein or platelet defects

Recurrent miscarriage syndrome (RMS) and infertility are common problems in the United States. The most common singular defect in women with RMS is a hemostasis defect, which is usually found if a thorough antiphospholipid syndrome evaluation is performed. Hemorrhagic defects are rare hemostasis causes of RMS, but these defects are treatable in many instances. It is important to evaluate women with RMS appropriately because most women will achieve normal-term delivery if: a cause for RMS is found. If the woman with RMS is properly screened through a cost-effective protocol, the cause will be found in almost all cases.
