RECURRENT PREGNENCY LOSS PROGRAMME

There is nothing more painful than losing a pregnancy repeatedly! It is not only devastating for the patient but also the treating doctor! RPL is defined as a situation where a woman has lost three or more than three pregnancies. At Southend we run a very positive RPL programme. We are the first in the country to discover and promote the fact that RPL may be caused by chronic infections like genital tuberculosis! We also discovered that majority of recurrent failures whether at implantation or later pregnancy is due to an impaired blood circulation within the pelvis especially the uterus. The cause for this may vary.

At Southend, we carry out all tests to rule out the cause of RPL and accordingly treat the patient. In case the patient has a genetic cause, the patient and her husband are informed regarding the defect and counseled regarding future implications. Endocrinal causes like PCOS can also be the reason and needs to be tackled by taking insulin lowering medication. We are proud to inform that 80% of cases are befitted by such cases, However, we would seriously wish to inform our patients that there is no need to go through extensive testing after a single pregnancy loss .This could have happened by chance and one should not worry about it.

OVUM/EMBRYO DONATION

Egg donors are chosen by the doctor based on their physical and temperamental resemblance to the recipient woman. This is done since most of the examinations are expensive and the doctor must first confirm that a match is possible before investing in the process. The donor is then required to undergo a thorough medical examination, including a pelvic exam, blood draw to check hormone levels and to test for infectious diseases, Rh factor, blood type, and drugs and an ultrasound to examine her ovaries, uterus and other pelvic organs. A family history of approximately the past three generations is also required. Genetic testing may also be done on donors to ensure that they do not carry mutations (e.g., cystic fibrosis) that could harm the resulting children.

Once the screening is complete, the donor will begin the donation cycle, which typically takes between three and six weeks. An egg retrieval procedure comprises both the Egg Donors Cycle and the Recipients Cycle. Birth control pills are administered during the first few weeks of the egg donation process to synchronize the donors cycle with the recipients, followed by a series of injections which halt the normal functioning of the donors ovaries. These injections may be self-administered on a daily basis for a period of one to three weeks.

PREPARATION FOR TREATMENT

For your protection and that of any child, we will need certain blood test results before we offer you treatment. Prospective parents must have a negative result for Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C and HIV. We must also have evidence that the prospective mother is immune to rubella, as well as her sickle cell anaemia and Thalassaemia status for those in high-risk groups.
