Ladies- After finding out today that I have a chemical pregnancy (my first ever pregnancy after 2 years of ttc) I am wondering whether it is just plain bad luck or that there is a problem. To give u a background, I have been ttc for almost 2 years and conceived on my 3rd IUI. There is no apparent fertility problems with DH or myself. I am 33 years old, DH is 35. My fertility doc had the following things to say after I sat with her for almost and hour trying to come to terms with this loss:
1. Chemical pregnancies are just plain bad luck sometimes
2. Sometimes they are caused by poor egg quality which can be caused by endometriosis or low FSH levels
3. Ectopics are sometimes due to tubal problems like the shape etc which might explain why ectopic pregnancies tend to re-occur.
She has suggested a laproscopy in my forthcoming cycle after I get my period to rule out endo and a FSH test maybe in the following cycle to rule out poor egg quality.
I just wanted to share what I found out today and maybe get some comments on what u guys think?
Hoping we never have to see another loss.
Lots of babydust for all of us
