Case History: A 35‐year‐old solicitor with a 3‐year history of unexplained subfertility presented for IVF treatment. She had a deep venous thrombosis (DVT) when she was 22 years old whilst taking the oral contraceptive pill. All investigations for thrombophilia were then negative. She is fit and well. Her body mass index (BMI) is 35; she is a nonsmoker and only drinks alcohol socially. Her partner is 34 years old and is fit and well. He has a normal semen analysis. The patient and her husband have come for a consultation regarding their IVF treatment but are concerned about the risks associated with her previous DVT.
