Brief Answer:
Describes the uterine content!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about your pregnancy loss. I know you would be able to again conceive and put to birth in future. I wish you the very best in this.

The report of the ultrasound describes the findings in the uterus. This is in support of the fact that abortion has occurred. The finding of a subchorionic hemorrhage may be the possible cause of the abortion. However, it is not very clear and we cannot be so sure about it. 4.4 refers to the size(diameter) of the hemorrhage measured. It units should be mentioned clearly on the report.

If possible upload the report, as this would help me in advising you better.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thank you so much for using our services and do feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.

Brief Answer:
Please, consider getting them operated upon!

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

With numerous fibroids and up to 4 miscarriages, I will recommend that you get the fibroids operated upon. That would be the greatest modifiable cause of these numerous miscarriages. This would improve your chances of becoming pregnant and keeping the pregnancy.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Keep me updated on what you choose to do.
