What Causes Early Miscarriages Along With Excessive Facial Hair?

default
Posted on Tue, 17 Mar 2015
Question: Could i have pcos? Or too much of the male hormone ( androgens) due to having excess hair? I have hair on my upper lip, chin and arms and some on stomach, you should know i have been hairy since birth. I had 2 miscarriages one in XXXXXXX 2012 due to low progestrone and one in XXXXXXX 2015 which was labeled a chemical pregnancy. I did have one live birth in 2013. I figured if i had pcos, my gyno would see it after all those ultrasounds i had in the last 3 years. I am not overweight and my periods are very regular. I just wanna know if i have an hormonal imbalance and that could be causing my miscarriages. I had one cyst burst in 2004 ( very painful) in my three pregnancies, i was able to conceive after first month. I am 34 years old. My son is alittle hairy as well. Just wanna know if i should go to fertility doctor?

Brief Answer:
Yes. Please see a fertility doctor

Detailed Answer:
Hello

I understand your concerns about hairy growth and excess male hormones.

Let me reassure you that these have nothing to do with your miscarriages.

Early miscarriages are commonly due to chromosomal abnormalities in the baby.

The proof is that you have one normal baby which makes it confirmed that the miscarriage was due to chromosomal abnormalities and not hormones.

Since you are 34 already, it would be advisable to see a fertility specialist.

If you let me know which city you stay, I can advice you accordingly and suggest a fertility specialist.
