Navigating Miscarriage together
Nobody should have to suffer 3 losses before they are taken seriously. Looking carefully at your history and diagnosis; after one loss, I would be investigating more closely. Often there is a lack of investigation into causative factors and a lack of emotional support. Have you had multiple unsuccessful IVF attempts and been told its down to egg and sperm quality but you are doing everything you can to improve this? You may be navigating tests and not have any clear answers but that’s where I can help.
Recurrent miscarriage causes, which are not routinely tested, could be:
High DNA sperm fragmentation – has a proven link to first trimester miscarriage
Vaginal microbiome – low levels of lactobascillus or infection in the vagina
Highly activated NK cells in pregnancy – often as a result of a pre existing immune system imbalance
Raised thyroid antibodies – impacting on thyroid function
Anti phospholipids – clotting factors that can affect implantation
Do you need support to navigate through this and help with the stress and anxiety that many couples face in this situation? I am trained to help with reproductive immunology, microbiome, thyroid and male factor issues and can help create a bespoke plan to support you.
