Hello All,
I am starting this new thread for anyone that has had recurrent miscarriages with being diagnosed with PCOS.
I have just had a D&C last Friday, that was my 4th miscarriage, and my 2nd miscarriage this year. My miscarriages always happen at the same time, around 7-8 weeks. Unfortunately, most of the time, I don't find out about my missed miscarriage until weeks after. In April, my 1st miscarriage this year, I found out at 10 weeks. I then took Misoprostal vaginally to start the process and it was horrible and traumatizing. Which is why I opted for the D&C for this miscarriage.
I understand with PCOS, progesterone levels can be lower than someone w/o PCOS. I also understand those with PCOS dont ovulate as much or not at all. In my case, I am able to get pregnant but unable to hold the baby for longer than 8 weeks. I also have one son who is 5yrs old so I know this is possible for me. I am hopeful.
Ironically, I am somewhat used to going through the process of miscarriages physically but I am emotionally and mentally unstable because of all this.
Is there anyone out there with a situation similar to mine? What have you found worked out for you? What meds are you on to help balance your hormones? How soon did you concieve and carry to term after your solutions?
Any help would be appreciated.
Lost and still hopeful,
Vanessa
