Any dangers in conceiving right after a miscarriage?
by brandy_bodiford, Apr 13, 2007 12:00AM
I had a miscarriage on 4/3 and my numbers completely dropped by last weekend. My husband and I would like to conceive as soon a possible. I know that I am nearing ovulationg now and was wondering if I was to conceive before I had my period if everything would be ok. I naturally miscarried and from the sono they didn't see anything left. I would appreciate any comments.

Brandy,
I usually reccomend to my pt's to wait until we have a bhcg of 0. Usually a period is a good clinical predictor that the bhcg is 0. The problem with not waitng til it is 0 is that if you draw a blood level and it comes back positive, Is it a new pregnancy? or Pregnancy tissue which did not pass with the miscarrage (miscarriage)? Tough spot to put yourself in.
Hope this helps,
