Recurrent miscarriage is a far more common problem than you might imagine. But, unfortunately, there is vey little immediate support available from the NHS for couples who are going through it. Most GPs won't refer you for a consultant's opinion until a third or fourth failure, and even then, there is little that many consultant gynaecologists believe they are able to do other than to ask you to try again.
Based on your answers to our uniquely comprehensive pre-consultation questionnaire, an Initial Consultation with one of our consultant midwives and fertility and conception experts, is designed to review all the aspects of you and your partners medical history, diet, lifestyle, and emotional and psychological well-being to look for any abnormalities or general indications of weakness or deficiency in your combined fertility status that may be contributing to the problem.
Many of our clients tell us that just the simple act of completing the questionnaire can be a liberating experience. After months or even years of trying, usually with little professional help or support, it can be an enormous relief to know that you've finally started to get some serious help on your side!
For some clients, the Initial Consultation can be sufficient by itself to give them guidance on what to do next or, more usually, we will use it as the start-point for further investigations and tests, as well as a referral to Dr Ndukwe, the Clinic's Medical Director and miscarriage specialist.
