Offer tests for women on the NHS after ONE miscarriage

Closed 44 signatures

What the petition asks

I have suffered 5 miscarriages in total, one being this year in 2017. I knew after the first two that something wasn’t right and pushed and pushed for testing. Unfortunately the NHS guidelines currently say that women need to have had 3 consecutive miscarriages before being offered tests.

Now after 5 miscarriages I have been tested and found to have (aps) often known as sticky blood which means I would need a blood thinning injection daily if I was to become pregnant again. This could have saved my 5 babies’ lives but because of this guidance, that unfortunately wasn’t the case. I am hoping to get this changed so other women like myself can get the answers and save the heartbreak please help.
