Aspirin for conception and pregnancy???

Just heared from a friend that a friend of hers in London got PG after 3 years of TTC because her doctor put her on aspirin (one a day). Could that be true? Even her doctor told her it's old wives' tales but after 3 unsuccesful IVFs and on the verge of giving up he thought it wouldn't hurt her to try. Seems like she got PG on the 3rd effort and she's due next month. The explanation they give is that since it improves blood circulation, it keeps the eggs healthier and ready and also enforces the lining of the womb, making it softer and more receptive for implantation. What do you think?

I just read on the TTC #1 board that asprine taken at conception can raise the m/c rate up. I would say that it is a tale b/c my dr told me to only take tylnol . The other pain meds are not good for pg or TTC.
