Factor 8 Homozygous-does that necessitate heparin (m/c ment'd)

HI Doctor,
Thank you for your time. I have had a blighted ovum and a loss to monosomy x. In my panic I did extensive (and am told controversial testing). I came out homozyg. for factor 8 (no not factor 5). The doc that did the testing recommended Lovenox. My RE said there's "no proof" that factor 8 will cause me to mc. I talked to a hematologist, he was pretty clueless and had to consult others, then, said go ahead and use a low dose, but it seemed like a CYA recommendation. HOw can I find good, solid advice on whether to take the lovenox? Presently 5w3d.
thank you,
shannon
