Recurrent miscarriage is not associated with a higher prevalence of inherited and acquired thrombophilia.

The prevalence of inherited thrombophilia does not differ between RM patients and controls. When analyzing rare events like thrombophilia, a high number of patients are needed to obtain reliable results, which might explain contradictory findings in previous studies analyzing small cohorts of RM patients. Despite being less prevalent than previously described, we still recommend screening for APLS as it is associated with severe pregnancy complications.
