I had to have hormone assistance due to repeated miscarriages - I'm now on pregnancy #10. I can fall pregnant at the drop of a hat seemingly but just as easily lose them. I'm 41.5 and last year when I had 4 in a row I was worried it was nature's way of telling me my eggs were too old and it was chromosomal anomalies that were causing them so headed off to a FS. I had the dye test as well as an enormous barrage of blood tests.
Given that I don't have trouble with conception they figured I probably didn't have problems with ovulation so I was monitored for the first two weeks with blood tests, an ultrasound at 9DPO to check on follicle growth, given a trigger shot of pregnyl for ovulation. I then had 1500iu pregnyl injections every three days during the TWW. Following my positive BT I continued with 5000 pregnyl injections three times a week, progesterone tablets 2 x 4 times daily and asprin daily. That regime continued until I got to 13 weeks and from that point only the asprin is continuing.
Their suggested plan had been to start with this regime and if no success within four months then to look at IVF. Fortunately I didn't need to go down that road.
I'm really sorry to hear you've had another loss. Having never experienced difficulty with conception I don't understand that particular road, but I do understand the heartbreak of the rollercoaster that is conception, loss and then finding the strength to start over again. Good luck.
