TTC after 35

Bacterial vaginosis:s

* tmi warning..lol* .....dr checked my cervix yesterday seen white discharge..ask me about it. I told him I had noticed nothing, no fever, chills, odor or discharge. He said ill look at it under scope and we discussed future plans. Nurse comes in with prescription for gel tells me I have bacterial vaginosis. I'm like what? ...lol she said 90% of women have it or get it. Well I was looking it up today,(it is most common thing in women..) because still wasn't quite sure but found out if you have it and don't know can cause 36% or 9 times the miscarriage rate in early pregnancy . It can cause preterm labor also. I crapped my pants I had ds at 34 wks and I know I was never checked for this. I wonder if I have accidentally stumbled on the reason for my losses. Sorry about wall of txt ..iPad doesn't want to do paragraphs:(

  • @ksgsmu yeah me neither I knew they check like at 36-37 weeks but I had ds at 34..:s and I didn't know it says more common then yeast...well I don't know why they don't do more studies:( the study I found was an re study for Ivf but doesn't matter it said conception rates where the same in two groups but bacterial vaginosis women were 9 times more likely to miscarry. They took out all the variables including maternal age...it's interesting...

  • Just realized this thread was duplicate and I posted my reply in the other one, so I'm reposting it here:

    About eight years ago I went through a series of recurrent BV and yeast infections (the antibiotics for the BV would cause a yeast infection and then the yeast medication would cause BV - fun stuff!).  It was crazy because I never had any real symptoms, and it's only because my doc checked under the microscope that he was able to diagnose it each time.  I am glad that your doc found it, and I hope the BV meds don't throw your vag out of whack like they did for me. Fingers crossed that clearing it up will help you along you journey ttc.

  • Well at first I was embarrassed to post but then the nurse is like we have all probably had it..lol then I seen the info on miscarriage I was like whoa. @ewenner thanks for posting..I'll be on the look out for yeast ...what fun! I didn't have symptoms. They said a lot of times they don't treat it but the nurse said you don't want to be pregnant with it...that's what made me look it up!

  • I used to get multiple BV infections in the past, and finally got the advice to take acidophilus pills daily to keep the pH in check down there. I haven't had a BV infection in years! 
    Me: 37 DH: 37, married since Sept. 2013. "actively" TTC for a total of 13 months (after 7 months of TTC, took a 1 1/2 year hiatus due to work scheduling and wedding planning. Started up again after our wedding in Sept.) First evaluation by an RE November 2013

    HSG-normal
    OH-tiny polyp found, but RE assured me she doesn't think it's contributing to infertility and doesn't recommend me to remove it because it's so small.
    DH's SA-normal
    Hormones all within normal levels
    Ovarian Reserve-RE says "is great" she's not concerned about my egg quantity (which I was until I saw her and results came back good!) 

    04/2012 50mg Clomid=BFN (prescribed by OBGYN, not monitored)
    06/2012 50mg Clomid=BFN (prescribed by OBGYN, not monitored)
    11/2013 100mg Clomid, with HCG trigger=BFN (prescribed by RE, monitored with US (2 dominant follicles) and baseline bloodwork done)
    01/2014 100mg Clomid, with HCG trigger-(prescribed by RE, monitored with US-1 dominant follicle)=BFN
    06/2014 7.5mg Letrozole, HCG trigger (prescribed by RE, monitored with US-2 dominant follicles), IUI #1 on 7/3/14=BFN
    07/2014 7.5mg Letrozole, benched for IUI#2 this cycle, because I ovulated on my own before my follicular US. Progesterone suppositories=BFN Diagnosed with PCOS this month too. Testosterone levels high at 76. =( 
    08/2014 7.5mg Letrozole, HCG trigger with 19mm follicle. IUI#2 on 8/31 cancelled last minute due to family emergency. 
    09/2014 Taking a 3 month break starting this month. If not pregnant in 3 months, will start up again with medicated cycles and IUIs. Had all my labs and AFC re-evaluated this month also. RE says nothing much has changed since my eval last November, okay for me to take a little break. =) 




  • @MARISA77 thanks so much! I'll get some tomorrow! :)
