Recurrent Miscarriage. Where to now?

[Hopingforarainbow]

I’ll cut a long story short here.
Over the past 2.5 years I have suffered 6 pregnancy losses including 1 ectopic pregnancy. After the last one when they were scanning me to check that everything had come away, I forgot to ask all the questions I have. I was just numb, and in that moment I didn’t even want to consider another pregnancy. However, fast forward a year and I’m ready. But what do I do? Where do I go? There’s obviously something wrong with me so I don’t want to just “try again” because I know what the outcome will be. Wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction? Sorry for the blunt message, I’m just tired of going through all the ins and outs as it just upsets me. Thanks I’m advance x

If you speak with your doctor they should refer you.

I'm surprised you no one has referred you in the past. Iv had 3 and at my last the lady who did my op asked me if we wanted to be referred for testing, her team sent information to my doctor who will refer me.

After 3 losses hun you should have been referred straight away to a recurrent miscarriage clinic. We had 3 losses and were referred, whilst waiting we went to a private clinic where I had bloods and follicle count etc

Sorry for your experience.

Def get a referral to a specialist recurrent miscarriage clinic. A proportion can be unexplained, but they should trst for various issues. I was diagnosed with antiphospholipid syndrome. Subsequent pregnancies i was treated with blood thinner and now have 2 dc. Good luck, i know it's a very difficult process

I just wanted to say I am sorry for your loss, I'm currently miscarrying my 8th (no living children).

I have an appointment with a specialist in February where I am hoping to get some answers, please try and do the same.

Sending you lots of love x

Thanks all for your all of your replies. So sorry to hear @elc19, it’s an awful experience, please take care of yourself.
I’ve never seen my doctor about any of my losses, only the first which I had an ectopic pregnancy, he referred me to the Epu and from then on I contacted them directly to rule out an ectopic ASAP.
Do you think I should contact my GP now for an appointment to discuss this with him?
Thanks Ladies x

Yes definitely speak to the GP for a referral. My aunt had 9 losses in a row and it turned out she wasn’t producing the hormone that made them ‘stick’ so was given injections and they worked

It’s definitely worth getting it investigated

Sorry for your losses

Definitely get referred and make sure they test for Lupus - it's one of the most common reasons and easily solvable with daily injections

Good luck

I'm so sorry for you too @Hopingforarainbow ❤️ please see your doctor who will refer you to a specialist. There are so many things they can test for, 90% of these are "easily" fixed with different medications. Wishing you all the very best, keep us updated xxx
