In November I had a positive pregnancy test, 3 weeks later I had heavy bleeding, and then I got negative on my tests.
ever since I haven't had a proper period, 2 weeks ago I bled but it still wasn't like before.
I've been going to the doctors for blood tests every month and each time they've come back borderline, it's sending me insane with what's going on with my body, doctors aren't doing anything.. what could I do, what could be happening? stressfull as we're trying to conceive.

Have you had any ultrasound scans to check that everything is ok?

Can you ask for a Gynae referral?

Not really. It could be that your uterus didn't completely clear after your mc - an ultrasound should tell you that and then it can be sorted out.

Did you go to an EPU with the mc? If so you could give them a ring and see if they have any advice - they might be happy to give advice even if you didn't see them at the time.

Never went to doctors or anything, just left it to sort it out naturally, do I have to go through the doctors to book a ultrasound or can I book one myself as there doing nothing about it, each blood tests come back are borderline, I've not had one normal period in 6 months now..
want to start TTC asap

I think you need to go to gp and insist on a scan. You could pay privately for a scan but if there was an issue then they wouldn't be able to help.

I'll ring them tomorrow and insist I need a scan and not let it drop, thank you, how much are private scans roughly?

I think they are upwards of £50 but ideally you want to get into the NHS system in case you need follow up treatment
