MTHFR
I found out I have one copy of MTHFR and that my homocysteine levels are borderline low. I have a script for metanx, but I'm doing IVF in less than a month and I'm only just starting it. Should I be worried that I haven't been on it for the past 2 months?

Re: MTHFR
I also have very similar diagnosis. I think my homosystine was high though. I think it should be under 11 per lab but 5 to be good and mine was 10. I only began metnax at 10 weeks. It's broken down folic acid and b vitamins. With the high homosystine they told me my body can't properly break down folic acid.

Oh ok. I misunderstood the results. My levels were borderline bad, so high not low I guess.
