A hidden and sometimes unknown (by people and doctors) infection that causes miscarriage (specifically repeated m/c). Have your doctor do a vaginal culture for UREAPLASMA UREALYTICUM AND MYCOPLASMA HOMINUS.

OMG.... thank you for posting this! I had this once 9 years ago. I can't believe I forgot about it. I wonder if that's my problem now. Thanks again for posting. Something I will definitely have my doctor check out.

There is not much info on the net either becuase so few now about it, I can only suggest the book Getting Pregnant by Neil Lauersen PHD it gives great info on it and also the treatment required and also check out beachcenter.com

Thank you for posting this. I have had multiple m/cs, so I am definitely going to bring it up at my next OB appt.

I was on antibiotics for this as a precautionary thing for the first 8 weeks of this pregnancy. Thanks for posting the additional details. I only knew it was for potential bacterial infections but not the name.
