Ep 155 Miscarriage and Recurrent Pregnancy Loss: Is IVF the right step for you?

Is IVF the answer for recurrent pregnancy loss? Why would IVF with genetic testing of embryo be helpful for people that are 'getting' pregnant but can 'stay' pregnant?

In this educational episode, Dr. Lora Shahine explains the complex relationship between IVF, genetics, and recurrent pregnancy loss. She reviews the science behind why chromosomal imbalances are one of the most common causes of first-trimester miscarriage and discusses how preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT-A) may help select embryos with the highest chance of success for some patients.

Through real patient examples and evidence-based guidance, this episode explores the nuances of testing, timing, emotional well-being, and the ethical and financial considerations that shape decision-making. Listeners will walk away informed, empowered, and reminded that no matter their fertility path, they are not alone.

In this episode you'll hear:

  • [2:03] Why consider IVF for recurrent pregnancy loss?
  • [4:10] IVF process & genetic testing
  • [11:02] Real world counseling & patient scenarios
  • [16:12] Pros & cons of IVF for recurrent pregnancy loss
  • [24:58] Key considerations for IVF
  • [28:15] Patient examples and recommendations
  • [31:12] Final thoughts
