Miscarriage #3 and Metformin.... Iam just alittle ticked off right now. I just had my third miscarriage on thursday ending in a d&c. I was almost 10 weeks the other two happened before 6 weeks and ended on their own. I was sent to a RE when I had my second miscarriage they did lots of testing and the only thing they found was that my insulin was still elevated. They uped my metformin to 1500 mg time released and decided to try me on clomid to help produced better quality eggs. I have always had periods and never much trouble getting pregnant. I responded well to the clomid produced 5 follicles and got pregnant the first round couldnt believe it. I went in to have my levels checked 14 days past ovulation they were 113 and at 17 they were 485 progesterone over 45. They said everything looked great had me come in for an ultrasound two weeks later. So i went in at 61/2 weeks had it done everything looked great saw heartbeat was at 123. The Re tried to reassure me that my miscarriage rate was in the single digits and they thought everything would be fine and to send them a pic of the baby, they then turned me back over to my ob. They did drop my met to 5oo mg on that appt. I made an appt with my ob for 3 weeks later went in at almost 10 weeks and when they did an ultrasound there was nothing there just an empty sac like the baby just dissolved. I asked about lowering the met he said he didnt think it caused anything. I have done tons of research and found similar situations when met is dropped or stopped. I just find it hard to believe it wasnt the cause maybe.
Iam just really kinda pissed off now. I was sad depressed still am but now mad to. I was just wondering what your thoughts were on my situation and if anyone has ever went through this or stayed on met? My ob had told me before he was going to keep me on first 12 weeks and the Re was saying he likes people off by 10 weeks. Iam scared now to try and get pregnant again this time was worse with the d&c and stuff and I will be going back to the Re and I was some answers tired of hearing it just happens cause I dont think it does three times. Sorry I was ranting I just want some help
