4 miscarraiges NOW WHAT TO DO??From: Stacey (anonymous@obgyn.net)Mon, 11 Aug 1997 08:31:33 -0500 (CDT)
Well I lost my baby yesterday while I was going to the bathroom. They didn't want to see the "tissue" and told me to just "flush it". There was not too much to it really. But now this is my 4th miscarraige and I would like to know what kind of test to request to discover what is going on. I am RH- so I will today request a blood test for anitbodies. In my research I have found that after all births, abortions, miscarraiges etc you should be administered a Rhogam shot. My OB did not administer one to me after any of my miscarraiges including my D&C... is there the possibility that I could have developed antibodies by this course of nontreatment? I have been searching the net and found the mentions of certain tests for infertility including progesterone test to be done at 7 dpo, a FSH,LH, TSH and estrodile. What exactly are these tests and what will the results indicate for me? Are there other tests that should be done that I need to be aware of? I will be 37 years old tomorrow and know that age also effects ones ability to carry a child. I have had two full term pregnancies but they were 7&9 years ago. Do eggs go "bad" as you age? Is there someway of determining if they are "bad"? Can anything be done to help if the eggs are "bad"? I normally have a 26 day cycle and ovulate on day 11 with a 15 day luetal phase. Is the luetal phase long enough? I thought as long as it was longer than 10 days you don't have a LP defect... is that true? Please if you can help, I would appreciate it. I have so many questions and need some answers... or even more questions to pose to my OB to get answers to my difficulties! Thank you in advance.
