Three Daughters and Four Miscarriages
Question
Hi- I was wondering about progesterone…my history, seven pregnancies:1. m/c (8 wk.)
2. healthy girl
3. healthy girl
4. m/c (11wk.)
5. m/c( 9wk.)
6. healthy girl
7. m/c (5wk.)
My question is could my miscarriages have been due to low progesterone?
My husband and I are thinking of having another and are both torn…should we just be thankful for what we have and he just have a vasectomy? Do we want to go through the pain of another miscarriage? We are really struggling with this decision and don’t want to have any regrets in life.
Please help.
Sincerely,
Cathy

Dear Cathy,
You have asked one question: Could low progesterone be the underlying cause for my four miscarriages? The answer is “Yes”. Low progesterone may have been a factor in your miscarriages.
You have three major concerns: 1) we try for another child and risk the heartbreak of another miscarriage; 2) we will be happy with the three beautiful daughters we have and my husband will have a vasectomy; 3) we may regret the vasectomy in the future.
The Creighton Model Fertility Care System can resolve these issues: It can be used to achieve or avoid pregancy. It has a 98.5% method effectiveness (perfect use of the system) for avoiding pregnancy, and a 98% effectiveness rate for achieving pregnancy within six cycles (couples with normal fertility). The biological markers which are observed and charted by the woman using the Creighton Model System can identify possible low Progesterone levels. Physicians trained as Creighton Model Medical Consultants can then diagnose and cooperatively treat the woman based on the information these biological markers provide. This is called NaProTechnology. If low progesterone is the culprit, cooperative progesterone treatment at the correct time in the cylce can prevent future miscarriages. This can also reduce or relieve the symptoms associated with premenstrual syndrome-PMS. Sometimes the biological markers point to other risk factors for miscarriage. These can also be diagnosed and treated by the Medical Consultant using NaProTechnology.
You can find a Creighton Model Fertility Care Practitioners and physicians trained as Creighton Model Medical Consultants on this web site. I would encourage you to find a practitioner close to you and attend an Introductory Session to learn more about the system and how you can use it to plan your family, monitor and evaluate your gynecolgic or procreative health, and how NaProTechnology can provide treatment before conception to prevent miscarriage or premature birth. Finally, there will be no concerns or regrets about a vasectomy.
