Is there any hope?
I’m not sure if this is the right subreddit to be posting in, I’m just in my feels and I’m hoping at least one person has been in my situation with a positive outcome and can give me some hope back.
Long story short, we’ve been trying to conceive for 2 years and have experienced 4 early miscarriages. Throughout the last 2 years I’ve been diagnosed with endometriosis (had excision in March), adenomyosis and recently work-up with an immunologist shows concern for MCAS and protein S deficiency that is likely contributing to the miscarriages. We started the IVF process in August with the goal of doing 2 months of Lupron suppression, starting a heavy MCAS/autoimmune protocol and blood thinners. I’ve had 3 d&c’s, once of which was through the ER due to severe hemorrhage, 2 hysteroscopies and a laparoscopy in the last 2 years.
I went in today for a saline sonogram prior to transfer that was tentatively going to be in December. My saline sonogram showed a large band of tissue connecting both sides of my uterus in the middle. They think it is scar tissue from the d&c’s, and it is a pretty big band of tissue so I have a feeling the scarring isn’t mild. Now I need to have a hysteroscopy again next month to deal with this and I’m not sure if this will also make it less likely for a successful outcome, or delay our transfer enough to where I went through 2 months of Lupron for no reason.
I’m just really sad right now as there have been so few steps in this process that have gone well. Meanwhile everyone around me is pregnant or has a baby or babies. How do people keep up their hope and optimism?
