Hi I just wanted to introduce myself. I truly don't know if this is where I belong so I'm sorry if I'm in the wrong place, but I just found out that I will be losing our 3rd little miracle. My hcg numbers dropped and I'm still in shock. I'm 28 and DH and I have had 3 MC in the last year and decided to seek out fertility treatment. I don't know much about fertility treatments. I feel into a deep depression after the last 2 MC, but I am going to try and remain positive and I do feel hopeful for the future. I'm taking a hot bath and having a glass of wine tonight! Again, I'm sorry if this is the "wrong group" just looking for some advice with our upcoming fertity process. Doctor said she recommends IVF so this is all new for me.
@Howardbae2015 So sorry to hear that sad news. My heart hurts for you. This board has a lot of caring, compassionate ladies on it and it sounds like you need support...you are absolutely in the right place. Again, so sorry.
I am so sorry for your loss. That is heart breaking. I am sorry you are here. Have the DRs discovered why you have had the MCs? Good luck with the rest of your journey, enjoy your glass of wine and bath. It's the little things...

Thanks @vssbrm and @erinscaren I have suffered from ovarian cysts since the start of puberty. I was put on the depo shot at a young age to prevent periods which caused my cysts. It sounds horrible but I actual had a great experience on depo. I was on it for almost 11 years and started a regular cycle within a year. We were able to conceive a little over two years after I stopped depo. The doctors don't think it has anything to do with the MC. They do suspect that I have scaring from the cysts though, but that can't be confirmed without a laparoscopy. Thanks for the warm welcome though!
Goodness I am so sorry for your loss! And so sorry that you have found yourself here! Welcome to the boards. I am sure you will find them to be a great resource as you learn more about IVF.
@howardbae2015 I am so sorry to hear about your loss. I too have suffered three consecutive miscarriages - no live children. After my last miscarriage I stopped ovulating on my own- I am currently 6 months into treatments trying to conceive again please don't hesitate to reach out if you need anything! I definitely understand how hard it is
