Thank you. I'll be 40 in October.

My surgeon pulled another HCG today and ordered another ultrasound to see if my lining is still thickened just like before my myomectomy and d&c laprascopic surgery. After my miscarriage, the nurse practitioner implied that my lining was still thick and it shouldn't be but we went on to try for 2 months in a row to no avail. Doc says that because it was trisomy 13, that the tissue was so abnormal which could be why it's so thick again. This makes me angry because just like this month, last month I had pregnancy symptoms that dissipate at about 12 dpo and spotting. I saw another doc in the same iffice last month and she said no way would I need to be scraped out again this soon especially since HCG was below 2. Why would she just assume this? What a waste of time. I feel like my body is trying to implant but it just won't because of my lining again. Has anyone heard of needing a scrape after each pregnancy to get pregnant again?

I think Femara will be better for you if you can get it
Well, that is one I've never heard before (Trisomy 13 and abnormal lining) that seems like one of those things doctors make up on the fly to placate people.
We had one member on here who did end up needing 3 d and c in a row but her HCG did not drop. My question is, do they think there is something going on with your estrogen levels (like are they unusually high or what) that could have contributed to the fibroid growth and also the thick lining??? They can give you some medicine to prevent that overgrowth from happening but I don't like how they're just acting like something was left behind when we do not think that is the case
I agree, that does sound made up to me. I've never heard anything like that abou sense that they would affect your lining.
I wouldn't necessarily assume you were pregnant again with low hcg at your age. Under 5 can be normal.
I wonder if red raspberry leaf would be worth trying? It is supposed to help tone the uterine lining.
I understand about the HCG number but why would she assume that my lining was ok without looking is my issue.
I remember that Raspberry would speed miscarriage along but I don't think I drank enough of it as I still had to wait 5 weeks to deliver after no heartbeat. How much should I be drinking to thin out the lining?

Raspberry would possibly aggravate that as it improves blood flow to the uterus and also may raise estrogen. I would also not having you use it with Clomid/Femara possibly on the horizon OR with the blood tests.
Dr says lining looks fine and because I'm older could take a couple more months. He doesn't like that I'm spotting before and after periods. If it doesn't take at ovulation next week, then he'll put me on clomid next month when cd1-3 starts. Praying for the best!
