[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm so sorry for your losses. It is SO hard when you can't figure out what's wrong. That's the situation we were in and the not knowing why we kept miscarrying was excruciating. I think the hard thing here is that even if this is your issue, which I'm not convinced it is if you're miscarrying normal embryos, there really is no treatment besides maybe seeing if progesterone helps, but I'm not sure if that has any basis in science and you're already doing it. I could possibly see Clomid to reduce the receptivity of your endometrium (which is a side effect of Clomid), but I'd stay VERY far away if you get pregnant easily. I don't think any doctor would prescribe that to someone with a hyper-receptive uterus unless in the context of a single IVF cycle transfer. When RPL is unexplained, the answer is often just keep trying until you can't take it anymore and hope you get lucky eventually. Or surrogacy of course.

But when you say you've been through all of the testing, have you done RPL testing with a RI? When you say early miscarriages, how many weeks? What's the highest HCG? Do you hear a heartbeat ever? Is it all at the same stage gestationally or do they vary? [/quote]

OP again. Thank you for this. My RE has actually repeatedly told me that euploid embryos (two tested as euploid and she has said don't bother testing anymore because we have established that I miscarry euploids) doesn't always mean that my embryos are healthy, only that the chromosomes are normal and there isn't additional testing that can tell us anything about a problem that could be sub-chromosomal. So it's possible that I have poor quality euploid pregnancies... Every one of them miscarried between six or seven weeks. We've seen a heartbeat twice and it's likely that it was there for the others too but we didn't have a US until 8 weeks when the pregnancy had already stopped progressing.  I'm not sure what my highest HCG was but they have always been within the normal range.

I've actually used Clomid twice (my spouse was pretty excited about the twin risk but we didn't get any) and we've stopped because what's the point.

I was hoping to do a full RI work up (we did NK cells already, which were normal to maybe borderline 10.8 we did prednisone just in case.. no dice) and a second opinion with Dr. Abasai once we were feeling emotionally up to it, but we are pregnant again instead.[/quote]
