Why are we having trouble Conceiving? Posted: 10-15-06 14:13pm
My boyfriend and I have been trying to get
pregnant since July 2005 and in april i
got pregnant but only a few days later i
had a miscarriage. I also had a
miscarraige in a previous relationship. My
periods are regular and i have no
illnesses but i dont know why we cannot
concieve.
According to the data you've provided
(you've had 2 previous miscarriages), it
seems that you can conceive but you have
trouble keeping a pregnancy. There can be
many reasons for early miscarriage (in the
first trimester of pregnancy). The most
common reasons are genetic causes from
both the mother’s and the father’s
sides. Viral infections, radiation,
mutagenic drugs, and chemicals can also
damage a embryo. Having a damaged or
inflammatorily changed endometrium can
also be a reason for miscarriage. Hormonal
disorders (diabetes mellitus,
hyperthyroidism, corpus luteum failure…)
are rare causes of miscarriages. You can
consult a gynecologist about this problem.
Several investigations must be performed
to identify the reason for current
sterility.
