Turner Syndrome

That's what caused my M/C. It happens in about 3% of conceptions, 99% of these conceptions miscarry, and Turner Syndrome is responsible for 15% of all miscarriages. Basically, it's a missing sex chromosome - the baby only has one X chromosome rather than two X or one X, one Y. So technically, it was a girl.
I am still nervous about my eggs, but I guess this does make me feel a little better. The chances of the same chromosomal defect reoccurring are low, it's not hereditary, etc. Guess I'm just lucky.

After 22 cycles and tube removal our IVF miracle has arrived! Detailed IF and IVF info in bio.
Thanks ladies. I'm hanging in there. I feel incredibly "lucky" - all I can think is why? Why us? But it is good to know that this wasn't caused by my old ass eggs. I guess I should feel lucky, since we were able to find out what happened. So many people have miscarriages and never know why. I also guess I should feel lucky that we did taste success to keep us going. If this last IVF had been a bfn, we would be done, but now we are going to keep going.
It's only money, right?
I have my moments, but I barely cried today. And I slept a full night last night, which is good. Not sure how I am going to survive work next week, when I feel like the ground has been pulled out from under me. I guess you get used to it.

I'm glad you were able to get some answers so quickly but it sucks that you needed them at all.
BIG (((HUGS))) Thinking of you while you decide what to do next.
I'm glad you have some answers, Dip.
FWIW my mom's youngest sister had Turners; I knew it was pretty rare but had no idea of the 99% m/c rate. She didn't live into adulthood but was also born in the 60s & when the doctors wanted to institutionalize her & her twin brother) my grandma refused. I never met her but just wanted to let you know it can happen to anyone; my grandma went on to have another healthy pregnancy thereafter.
((hugs)) to you
