What is Antiphospholipid Syndrome?
Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is an autoimmune disorder where the body's immune system mistakenly produces antibodies that target certain proteins in cell membranes. This can lead to an increased risk of blood clotting and various complications, such as strokes, heart attacks, and recurrent miscarriages. Treatment involves preventing blood clots and managing symptoms with medications like anticoagulants.
