Miscarriage

Dr. Stoll and others,
I have searched the archives on miscarriages and am quite concerned. I have recently had two miscarriages and not sure what to do. Yes, I saw your comments on the book (What's the name again?) but honestly I don't want to wait two years to try again. My diabetes is in great control, A1C 6.8 but I am 3 months out of my last pilonidial cyst surgery. As of now, the doctors say there is no real cause for my miscarraiges which have been in the first 6-8 weeks both diagnosed as "missed ab's". Both dr's, high risk and regular ob's, say that 2 misses is within the realm of 'normal' since 1 in 5 miscarry. (that is the most current statistic from many sources) One dr. says it may be a hormone issue yet the other says the hormone (mid-ludial syndrome?) is almost impossible to diagnose?
Is there anyone who can shed some light on this issue?

Hi, Lisa.

The statistics you are quoting here are a good example of the rapidly deteriorating environment. When I went to medical school (40 years ago) the statistics were 1 in 10 pregnancies ended up as an abortion. Now the ratio is 1 in 5???

This just emphasizes the genius of Dr Airola who knew this at least 30 years ago. For BEST results the lifestyle changes must be started 2 years before conception. However, even a month helps.

If you have a better way of pushing your physiology toward normal, I hope you will share it with the rest of us.
