Hi, im sorry to hear about your problems with having children. I guess the best thing to do right now is speak to your doctor and seek his/her advice in the matter. Find out if seeing a fertility clinic will help and so on. I have yet to attempt to have kids, but i do hope that you and your husband will be able to bring a child of your own into the world.

I hope so to cause thats what i want. I mean i wouldnt mind adoption but where he doesnt believe in it i am lost. I even told him if we tryed whats out there and we still cant have a child can we adopt he said no cause its just the way god wants it. The thing is i have always said if I cant bring children into this world that I would adopt, just cause of all the kids out there with out parents.

Miscarriages
Posted: 01-16-08 16:11pm

Keep an eye on your cholesterol levels during pregnancy because the cholesterol helps to make progesterone and estrogen and if the cholesterol drops too low i.e. below 150 then the strentgh of the placenta will fail. To raise cholesterol eat cream, butter cheese steak and lamb. Cholesterol is so important and women should have aslightly higher cholesterol clsoer to 200-220 mg/dl. I have treated several women who have had miscarriages and they all had low cholesterol. I got them to eat the right food and hey presto they went full term ! Most GP's and MD's think that cholesterol can go as low as 130 but in pregnancy it should be way higher. Optimal scores are really 150-220 mg/dl. Good luck

Are you very thin? A lot of times when your young and thin a pregnancy doesnt stick until you gain a few pounds. At least I have heard a lot of other woman say the same. Maybe my observation of weight and pregnancy has to do with what laurens is saying about cholesterol and diet. Fattier foods= weight gain. Not a ton 5-10 lbs what we normally fluxuate anyway.

Have you thought about seeing a specialist instead of your regular gynecologist? Usually, specialists will stay with you througout the first trimester at least to prevent possible miscarriages.

How far along were you each time you had a miscarriage?

Low cholesterol and Miscarriages
Posted: 01-16-08 18:22pm

As cholesterol increases people will gain weight.
As cholesterol lowers people lose weight.
Cholesterol is the building block of human tissue.
Keep the cholesterol higher by eating butter, cream, steak, cheese and lamb.
Pregnant women are naturally anabolic and the clue is that your urine will have a specific gravity of less than 1.010.
If your Urine goes higher than 1.020 then your catabolic ( breakdown) and the tissues become unstable.
I know about this stuff because my wife is 105 lbs and 5 ft 9inhes. She had to eat those food items to build the cholesterol up.
We nearlt miscarried with our 3rd pregnacy as her cholestetol went down to 137. The ob/gyn diagnosed it as placenta previa; this means the foetus was lipping towards the vagina. Within a matter of five days we had raised the cholesterol by stopping all olive oil and fish oils as these lower cholesterol and made sure she had steak and lamb everyday.
we saved the baby and now we have a wonderful baby boy !

Go anabolic to stop miscarriages.
Also another thing:
In my clinic we also screen for a bacteria carried by cows called brucella abortus. In humans this too can cause miscarriages but it is a rare finding....nevertheless we do sometimes test for it.

By for now L.

what about serigacy? I read somewhere that lots of people are going to India or something for surogate mothers but there's awhole lot of ethical stuff to go along with that...other than adoption I think this is ur only other option (surogacy) Good luck!!!

High cholesterol...
Posted: 01-17-08 04:59am

Well if your cholesterol is high than I would conclude you'll have a slow thyroid or you have a chronic yeast infection within your body. Yeast is really nasty and most MD's dismiss it as nothing but it could not be further from the truth. I am about to publish a book about this massive oversight by the medical establishments. Accodring to the the WHO ( Prof. Constatini et al/ Fungalbionics ) yeast is responsible for a lot of cancer, heart diseases hgh cholesterol, high blood pressure, lymphoma breasy cancer, prostate cancer and infertility). I could'nt agree more as this is what I have professionally seen in my clinic. When people perform a thorough yeast clean up their bodies work a whole lot better. I have had 1000's of patients lose weight reverse heart diseases, lower cholesterol go into cancer remission.
The body produces high cholesterol to defend itself from fungal toxins. These toxins are Ergosterol. Both however are sterols. Cholesterol lowering drugs are Statins but statins can also be used to treat female vaginal yeast infections. High cholesterol can be caused by fungal invaders and this is why the MD's give Monastatin for vaginal yeast and they give Lipitor or zocor ( atorvastatin and simvastatin) for high cholesterol. Only two creatures on this planet produce Ergosterol and that is yeast/fungi and cancer cells. Chemotherapy is a form of Ergosterol blocker. Cholesterol drugs are also ergosterol blockers.
Do a full yeast clean up, lose weight and lower the cholesterol. Women's bodies do not want to have babies when they have chronic yeast as the yeast can damage the growing foetus and then the body rejects it because of deformities and neural tube defects.
I would recc. a good book for now called The Fungus Link by Doug Kauffmann. Get to the chapter "womens health problems and you'll relate.
Hope this helps you.....

Possibly. Your thyroid and ovaries are part of the same body system, so there are times when one organ is out of balance and it affects the other. Like I said, ask to be referred to a specialist. There are ways to work with what's going on.
