Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss

evaluation for repeated pregnancy loss

Hello,

After two confirmed and another suspected chemical pregnancy (within 6 months), I now have an appointment with an reproductive endocrinologist. For those of you who have gone through this routine, any input on what I should expect at that first visit? I would like to be prepared for the consultation and any testing they might suggest. All of this has made me incredibly anxious. I am looking forward to input about what has been going on, but simultaneously worried that it a) there won't be anything they can identify or b) that it will be something they can identify that is significant and not treatable. 

Thanks.

  • I haven't been through RPL testing but I do know that the TTCAL blog has some great info. If you haven't already read it, you should probably start there: https://www.ttcalblog.blogspot.com/2012/08/recurrent-pregnancy-loss-rpl-testing.html

    I agree with checking out the blog. Also I know many women on TTCAL are under the care of an RE so you could also try asking on that board (after introducing yourself). I'm sorry for your losses.
