Hi all, just wondering if anyone has any experience of or has had any advice on ivf for hyperfertility.
Not sure if people know what hyperfertility is so my v. non sciency explanation is that it is when a woman's womb is not selective about the fertilized eggs it allows to implant. It accepts non viable embryos and allows them to implant when it should reject them before the period is even missed. So the woman gets pregnant very easily but may miscarry a lot as her body only rejects the non viable embryos further down the line. Hope that makes sense.
We have a DD who we are hugely grateful for. Since trying for a second child we have had 6 miscarriages (just had an ERPC yesterday). our miscarriages have all been between 6-8 weeks. Out of 7 pregnancies I have got pregnant the first month of trying 5 times and the second month of trying twice.
I'm wondering, as my body is not weeding out the non-viable fertilised eggs at implantation should we be considering ivf with the the option where they check chromosomes before putting them back in?
One of the consultants at St Mary's (Recurrent Miscarriage Clinic) suggested that because i can get pregnant naturally the odds for ivf working are probably lower than if we just keep trying. Can this be right. Anyone know what the odds are...or the expense with the chromosome testing?
Any information gratefully received.
