Hi Dr

In a period of 1 year I have done 3 cycles of IVF, got pregnant the first 2 but had miscarriage on week 7 and 11. The cycle 3 was done last August & I didn't get pregnant, had my period on 13/08/10. I was waiting for my next period when on 14/09 I found out that I was pregnant naturally, but unfortunately on 21/09 I had another miscarriage. I am very scared that I may not be able to conceive. What should I do? Please help me.

My wife and I had a miscarriage a little under 2 months ago, and it was DEVASTATING! We're going to TTC very soon but I'd like to know if our chances for a successful pregnancy is increased. I've read many articles that indicated better chances of pregnancy after a m/c but I'd like to confirm that with you.

Just 2 be on the safe side b4 u try 2 conceive, go 2 ur Dr. & ask her/him check all ur levels 2 progesterone, genetic testing that deals w/chromosomes, & have ur spouse get checked out 2. The reason y u were able 2 conceive but not carry out 2 full term is cause some women have high progesterone levels that helps conceive but later on during the pregnancy the level drops. don't have enough progesterone 2 maintain the pregnancy & chromosomes abnormalities hope that helps. srry 4 ur losses
