I am just curious....

Okay..I am so glad I came across this board..
...From November through March I had positive PREGNANCY tests every month and am now going for recurrent pregnancy loss pannel (which has been so hard on my husband and I), HOWEVER, after reading this, is it possible that I have PCOS and that my hormones were throwing the tests off? They never even checked for PCOS and I fit a lot of the descriptions...Hmm..the wheels are turning...please let me know what you think

And if this is true, what can we do to increase our chances of a halthy, viable pregnancy?

Thanks and

i am not sure if this will be helpful to you or not but my friend had i guess a similar problem. she was getting positive pregnancy tests as well and then not keeping the pg. for her she needed to take clomid and have iui's in order for her pgs to stick. she had to do this with her 2 boys and she is now pg again with a girl!

I don't think so LH is the hormone that is measured by OPK's. HCG is the pregnancy hormone measured by HPT's. I woudl suggest getting the recurrent pregnancy loss panel

eTA: I just read your post again-I see you are already getting the RPL-you can ask your Dr to give you a glucose tolerance test because if you do have PCOS uncontrolled sugar can cause miscarriage...
