I've just received the Karyotyping results on the baby from my last miscarriage and was wondering if anyone has had similar.
The report says abnormal female with Triploidy. Three copies of chromosomes 13, 18, 21 and the sex chromosomes (XXX) present.
Then goes on to say although the recurrence risk is low, prenatal diagnosis may be appropriate for future pregnancies.
It was my fourth miscarriage - after the third I had all recurrent mc tests which came back clear. But I didn't have them karyotyped so will never know if it has happened before.
After my erpc I went to see Mr Shehata who diagnosed me with high nk cells so I'm now on steroids from ovulation while we ttc.
Should I be seeing a genetic counsellor? Does anyone know the actual statistics of this chances of this happening again? I mean I'm already in the 1% of women who suffer recurrent miscarriages.
Don't really know what to think.
