Recurrent Loss Panel Test Results

PPL2011

Hello Ladies,I had about 13 tests done after my 2nd miscarriage and the two that came back out-of-range were Anti-Nuclear Ab and Anti-Thyroid Microsomal Ab (TPO). My ob/gyn said they were slightly elevated and not to worry too much. He said the findings were non-specific to my miscarriages. The results are now being forwarded to my RE, who I suspect will be more discouraging.Anyone have positive/out-of-range/ results with these two tests? Any advice is welcome and appreciated!

I'm not familiar with those test results, but I assume they also tested you for MTHFR?  That's a very common genetic mutation resulting in recurrent miscarriages.

After my m/c my thryoid panel came back abnormal, my RE said it was quite common for your thyroid to go hyper and then hypo and then normalize after a m/c. I had it retested a few weeks later and it was back to normal. I'm not sure this correlates to your findings in any way but l but thought I'd offer if up.

GOOD TO KNOW! THANKS!

THANKS! I WAS TESTED FOR MTHFR AND IT WAS NORMAL.

I had the RPL after 2 miscarriages as well and one of the things tested came back very slightly higher (like 1 digit) than "normal". It was awhile ago so I can't even remember which one it was...but basically was told that most likely my m/c were just a string of "bad luck".  

We are going in next week for more testing and to discuss possible IUI.   GL!  

ETA:  We've only been dealing with an RE and he didn't think this one slightly elevated component (wasn't either of the ones you mentioned) had anything to do with the m/c...so I hope things go better than you think with your RE!

I've had 2 MC but in Canada they do not do any testing - at all - until the 3rd MC. 

We were referred to Infertility Clinic because of my age and medical history, but still they only did a few tests - Day 3 and Day 20 of my cycle.

Got the full results faxed and I tested positive for one copy of the c6777 MTHFR Mutation (Heterozygous). Any info on that?
