Hi everyone,

thank you for taking time to read this. I am currently experiencing a missed miscarriage and finding it difficult to decide which route to go down medical or surgical.

I have booked in for surgery but now I am scared it could impact on any future chances of getting pregnant - something I am keen to try for straight away (as soon as I feel better both physically and mentally)

looking for any advice

Im so sorry for your loss

personally surgical seems to me the better option lots of stories of medical not working and needing surgery - percentage wise medication is 85% effective and surgery 95%

i spoke with my doctor and the risk of any damage is minimal - and the damage there is a risk for can be repaired

best of luck xxxx

I conceived my first time trying after my surgical management, although I did have a cycle where we didn’t try. So basically conceived 3 months after surgery. My period didn’t come for 7 weeks after the surgery but I have PCOS so a longer return was to be expected.

I had surgery earlier this year. Only bleed that night then no bleeding after. I had my first light period 12 days later. Then fell pregnant two weeks after that. X

I went for surgical, was pregnant again eight weeks later. I did have to go private as the wait for surgical on nhs was 3 weeks. I’m sorry for your loss.
