Hi, I miscarried at the beginning of June 2024 and ever since I have had recurring health issues that I’d never had before. The main one being abdominal issues, every couple of months I have a series of intense stomach pain that sometimes makes me unable to stand up straight, bloating and constipation. In the last 2 months I have also starting losing hair on my head and eyebrows as well as my eyelashes. Among a few other things. I’ve been to see a doctor but was hardly listened and sent away with a prescription for antispasmodic tablets without any investigation/reason besides a coeliac test (result was normal). Has anyone else experienced any such issues following a miscarriage? Thank you!

You need to go see a different doctor. Explain your symptoms. Whether or not they are related to your miscarriage is not so much the point: you need to find a medical professional who listens to you and is prepared to work with you. Good luck

Your hair loss to me sounds like alopecia but it could be anything. I would definitely try a different doctor.
