Trying To Conceive For 2 Years. Does Having Blood Clots During Periods Be A Reason For Not Getting Pregnant?

Hello I have been trying to get pregnant for the past 2 years but I haven't been successful ( I already have 2 daughters) but i been told that due to me having blood clots while in my period every month is the reason i can't get pregnant. Is that true if so what can i do? I really want another baby. By the way I'm 38 years old.

Thank you

Hi,
Thanks for writing in to us.

At age 38 years, the number of viable eggs in a woman significantly decreases with increasing age. The reason of not getting pregnant due to blood clots in your periods is not right.

If you have two daughters already, you do not have any structural abnormality in yourself. Please try to have intercourse with your partner around the date of ovulation, one day before ovulation and for four dates after that regularly.

Keeping your age in mind, I would suggest you to consult a fetal medicine clinic and discuss the information on issues with children born to mothers around your age. Some screening tests may become necessary to be done once you get pregnant to confirm that the unborn baby is normal in all respects.

Hope this helps

Hi,

Thanks for your query. I read your query and I understand your concerns.
Following is my reply:

1) Since you are 38 year old, your egg reserves in ovary must have decreased.

2) Please see an infertility specialist soon and get tested for ovarian reserve by scan and tests AMH and FSH.

Let me know if you have anymore doubts.
Regards,
