A couple weeks ago, during my water ultrasound to ensure that my uterus was prepared for another embryo, our physician discovered a polyp on one of my uterine walls. He believed it was either a piece of placenta that was missed during our D&C, or a growth.
Obviously, I was really hoping it was just something they missed during the D&C, but after our hysterscopy today that appeared to not be the case. Dr. Foulk determined that it was indeed an endometrial growth, and that it likely played a hand in our miscarriage a few months ago. This realization, frankly, shattered my heart. I'm happy that we found a possible reason for the miscarriage, but all my feelings of guilt and inadequacy came flooding back in an instant. Any positive vibes would be greatly appreciated at the moment.
The staff was kind enough to provide me pictures from the hysterscopy since all of this fascinates me, this is an image of the removal of the polyp. It really is an interesting picture. With this issue addressed we're ready for another embryo transfer. I have more confidence that this next transfer will be successful.
