Recurrent Miscarriage Testing & Treatment
Recurrent miscarriage, defined as the loss of three or more consecutive pregnancies, can be an emotionally and physically challenging experience for individuals and couples trying to conceive. It affects approximately 1% of couples and can stem from various underlying factors, including genetic, anatomical, hormonal, and autoimmune issues. Understanding the causes of recurrent miscarriage is crucial for effective treatment and achieving a successful pregnancy.
Our Comprehensive Testing Services
At Neogenesis Fertility Centre, we offer a thorough evaluation for individuals experiencing recurrent miscarriages. Our testing services are designed to identify potential causes and guide appropriate treatment options. Key components of our recurrent miscarriage testing include:
1. GENETIC TESTING
- Karyotyping: This test analyzes the chromosomes of both partners to identify any genetic abnormalities that may contribute to miscarriage.
- Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT): For couples undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF), PGT can screen embryos for genetic conditions before implantation.
2. HORMONAL ASSESSMENTS
- Thyroid Function Tests: Thyroid disorders can impact pregnancy outcomes, so we assess thyroid hormone levels to ensure they are within normal ranges.
- Progesterone Levels: Low progesterone can lead to difficulties in maintaining a pregnancy, and we evaluate hormone levels to determine if supplementation is necessary.
3. ANATOMICAL EVALUATIONS
- Ultrasound Imaging: A detailed ultrasound can help identify any structural abnormalities in the uterus, such as fibroids, polyps, or uterine septum, that may contribute to miscarriage.
- Hysterosalpingography (HSG): This X-ray procedure evaluates the shape of the uterine cavity and checks for blockages in the fallopian tubes.
4. AUTOIMMUNE AND BLOOD CLOTTING DISORDERS
- Antiphospholipid Antibody Testing: This test checks for antibodies that can increase the risk of blood clots and miscarriage.
- Thrombophilia Testing: We assess for inherited or acquired blood clotting disorders that may affect pregnancy.
