Hormone status tested, miscarriage risk?
Hello everyone ,
I had two miscarriages this year: 04/24 at 6 weeks and 08/24 at 8 weeks.
I'm currently asking questions and testing everything to find out what the cause could be. Everything was within the normal range except for my iron level, which was slightly low (I'm now taking tablets).
Finally, we checked my hormone status. It turned out that DHEAS and total testosterone were elevated.
The gynecologist told me I should try to get pregnant now, otherwise I should come back and she would give me injections or tablets to induce ovulation.
Do these values affect pregnancy? Should I take something beforehand to counteract the male hormones?
Would progesterone help? 🙁
Many thanks in advance

In case of miscarriages, women are not always guilty. Does your partner live a healthy life? Does he have a lot of stress? Does he smoke? Does he regularly drink alcohol or regularly take medication? This can affect the quality of the sperm up to 1 week before fertilization.
It may well be that the increased male hormones interfere with the maintenance of pregnancy. I have PCOS and therefore have too much androgenic circulation, so it causes various symptoms. But in the case of PCOS it is generally difficult to get pregnant at all, because the ovulation usually remains (regular cycles) This is not the case with me now because I have regular cycles with my adrenal PCOS. But in any type of PCOS, the goal is to reduce androgens in a targeted manner, so that the symptoms can go back or be kept to a minimum. Maybe you could try to lower your elevated adrogenics and then try to get pregnant again.
As your DHEAS is elevated, your adrenal glands produce too much stress hormone where the DHEAS is produced as a by-product to lower the cortisol level. It would make sense to do more stress management, through sports, hobbies, walks and/or mediation/yoga.
Testosterone is produced by the woman mainly in the ovaries. You could try 2 cups of green mint tea daily, as studies have shown that this testosterone-lowering properties has.
It wouldn’t hurt to investigate spies and ovaries more closely if you don’t have any other symptoms like folicles in the ovaries or irregular cycles that would indicate a PCOS.
Or your microbiome in the vagina is disturbed. I have heard that many women were able to get pregnant by targeted supplements for the microbiome of the vagina. Before the supplements they had tried to get pregnant without success.
The causes are therefore diverse, which do not necessarily have to be associated with a nutrient deficiency.
Hello. Thank you for the detailed explanation and tips.
My gyn said I should try it again and then I should take Progesterone.
How and where can you control the adrenal glands?
I’ll try the mint tea.
In the case of a doctor, you could ask, otherwise an endocrinologist would be the next contact person, because you have too many male hormones whose cause should be clarified if it is not a PCOS. He’d investigate that.
I would be there if I were in the situation urgently Orthomolecular medicine to guess.
Even with unfulfilled child desire at all.
Often the problem is chronic (my long-term research) Nutrient and Vitamin deficiency .
Which gynecologists can’t help with the usual supplementation recommended to pregnant women.
The important area is also not properly clarified by school medicine.
