Cervical erosion and womb biopsy then pregnant.. Anyone know anything about these?

[Freezingwinter]

It took 10 cycles to conceive my first child. I was having spotting mid month and a referral to a gynae diagnosed cervical erosion. He removed it with silver nitrite and did a uterine biopsy. That month I got pregnant! Does anyone know if the treatment I had would have increased my chances of getting pg? We are currently 1 cycle into ttc number 2.

They did a uterine biopsy at the recurrent miscarriage clinic I went to, and although they say it is primarily diagnostic they did mention that it also has a therapeutic benefit - apparently traumatising the uterine lining (!) can lead to the generation of a better lining. This is the same logic as why they sometimes do a uterine 'scratch' in IVF. So yes, I think it can help! But, in any case, congratulations!

So obviously I don't want to wait until we are a year into ttc number 2 and realise we can't conceive naturally.. So is this something I should see the gp and ask to referral back to gynae for ?

Well I am probably jumping the gun but I have booked an appt with the GP for a months time. I'm going to ask to be referred back and checked and see i they'll give me another biopsy.

Sorry, I understood your post before - I thought you were saying that you were pregnant now and were just curious about whether it helped. I don't want to upset you but I think it's very, very unlikely your GP will agree to this. 10 cycles is in the 'normal' range so you don't have any documented fertility problem, and even if it had taken you longer to conceive your first child they'd make you try longer than two months before offering any help with a second. I don't think anyone would give a uterine biopsy to a woman with no clinical need for it, and I certainly don't think they'll do it on the NHS (I think you have to be paying privately to get the endometrial scratch with IVF and obviously there there's a documented need). I hope I'm wrong and I suppose it's worth seeing your GP to be sure, but I really, really wouldn't pin your hopes on this. It's much more likely that it was random coincidence that you got pregnant on that cycle last time than it is that that's the only way you can get pregnant.

That's ok, thank you again for your reply! I hope you are right - that is was a random coincidence. I was actually pregnant with non identical twins, in two different parts of the uterus obviously, so that also makes me think it wasn't the biopsy, as the biopsy was only one small area of endometrium, if you see what I mean?
I had blood tests which showed ovulation normal fsh amh levels etc. Husbands semen analysis was normal.
I was supposed to have an internal scan to check the lining of my uterus I think? But that was cancelled as I was pregnant by that time.
I'm just going to the GP to see if they can recheck for erosion, maybe do the scan, and as I do still get irregular bleeding I am hopeful that they'll do a biopsy If they need to.
the waiting time last time was about 12 weeks so by that time we'll have been ttc for 5/6 months and it makes me feel like I'm taking positive action.
