Hi girls,

I was told to come on here and ask ya some questions so I hope to maybe get some advise or something to help us...

I was on clomd for 4 cycles and got a bfp on 100mg. Well it ended in a MC at 9 weeks. Does anyone think/know that clomid "might" have been a cause? My dr has now RX metformin 1000mg daily and when I have my cycle to try the clomid 100mg again with estrogen for cm. I am scared to take the clomid again but I read that the metformin sometimes takes awhile to get a bfp. And usually i wouldn't rush things but we only have our donor until March as he is leaving for Iraq.

Is there any success with the metformin and clomid together? Did this combo cause any MCs?

Thank you so much in advance for your advice/suggestions. :hugs:
 
I do think there is SOME data out there for a higher miscarriage rate when you have PCOS. I think if there is any connection between the clomid and MC it is more likely because of underlying conditions like PCOS that would make you more likely to be put on clomid.
If that makes sense.

So sorry for your loss! :( I remember you from other TTC threads and when you got your BFP.
For me, I know clomid made me much LESS likely to miscarry because I had low progesterone and with clomid, my progesterone levels got higher.
If you know when the loss happened (when did the baby stop growing) it might help you figure out a possible clue.
There are some points when blood flow is important and if you have any clotting issues, you can help by taking baby aspirin (with doctor's permission). Some docs put women on it just in case. I think my doc said I could take it if I wanted.
Sometimes it could be a progesterone issue... in which case progesterone suppositories can help (though if the pregnancy is failing it may prolong a non-viable pregnancy... so it only helps if progesterone is the only issue).
I'm sorry, there often aren't answers.. There is another clomid club over in the LTTC section... we had 2 girls in there this year get their BFPs and miscarry... one is pregnant again (and has gotten further than she did last time) and the other is still trying.
 
Thank you Lisaf for you reply. I know I do not have PCOS but do have severe endometriosis...but my last surgery to cleaned out for that was July 1st. So my first cycle after that is when I got my BFP.

As far as gestational age I got to 6 weeks 4 days the week before my MC but shouldve been almost 9 weeks. Then the day I found out bout the MC i measured 6 week 1 day and the heartbeat we did see was then gone. What is the possible clue you were talking about?

Well I think I may do both metformin and clomid again with estrogen. But still scared I guess. I had to get an endo biopsy to remove the rest of the placenta because it was still kinda stuck in the cervix and they are sending that stuff off for tests, so will hear about that in a week or so.

Im just scared of another MC because this was devastating specially after we saw the heartbeat.
 
I haven't been through that so I can't understand, but I can imagine how horrible that is. There are lots of ladies in the loss forums who may know a lot.
I do think that its hard to figure out if there is a preventable cause unless you have several miscarriages.
Unfortunately, one miscarriage can happen to anyone it seems.

If your problem was low progesterone, that would mean the pregnancy was viable but your body stopped making enough progesterone to hold onto your lining and you shed the pregnancy... since the growth stopped a while without the lining shedding, so I don't think that would be your issue.

The only other clue I've read about is if it happens at a time when developing the bloodflow and placenta and umbilicial cord... that clotting might be one preventable cause... a small, tiny blood clot could cut off the baby's supply. This is why some women take aspirin while TTC and during part of pregnancy.

Unfortunately there are lots of other causes...most are totally unpreventable during the first trimester. I only know about those 2 preventable causes.
They can test for genetic abnormalities with the tissues sometimes, but I dont' know how helpful those answers are or if they're any indication of future success.

Truly, the loss area of this site has so many wondeful ladies who can help you deal with your fears... even if you know the cause and can help prevent it... there are no guarantees ever and its extra scary if you've had a loss. I think there is even a TTC after a loss section.
 
Thank again so much! You are just a bucket of knowledge girly! :hugs: My dr did say that my corpus luteum was in tact and my sac and uterus grew like it should have...but did get that stuff sent off for testing so hopefully there was nothing wrong.... thank you hunni

I will go to the ttc after loss thread so I dont cause a downer on here for you girls...i apoligize.

Just wondering if some of the clomid girls on here took metformin as well?
 
don't worry about being a downer, I just don't know what to say and wish I could be more comfort... I just suggested that section because those women will probably know better things to say, even if its just that they've been there too and can offer better support than I feel able to.
:hugs: You're welcome to discuss it here anytime you want

Thanks, I know sometimes knowledge can help.. I wish I knew more. I'm just so sorry this happened to you :cry:
