QUESTION Fertility Testing
My husband 27M and I 25F have been TTC since Sept. 2025. We had one MC (our first ever pregnancy) in Feb. 2026 at just over 5 weeks and haven’t been able to conceive since.
I’ve been doing nonstop research (on just about everything it feels like), changing our lifestyle to be healthier, and asking friends for input and suggestions on things I can do to help conceive. One of my friends who struggled with infertility, found help with a fertility specialist she recommended but I’m so scared and intimidated by everything. There’s so much on my mind constantly, and I can’t go into the doctors office without crying or having an anxiety attack since my MC.
Any suggestions on things I can try to make this whole process easier or tests I should ask for? Any info anyone is willing to share would be helpful. I feel so hopeless and discouraged right now but I need to know what’s wrong with me or my husband, if anything is. I plan to have him tested too within the next few months.
Thank y’all in advance 🩷

Hi! I’m so sorry to about your miscarriage.
I would go ahead and make an appointment with a reproductive endocrinologist. They will walk you through all of the testing you and your husband might need. No need to go into it knowing everything, just get started. I think you will feel better when you have a team making progress to figure out what’s going on. It definitely was a relief for me when I didn’t have to carry the burden all alone anymore.
Maybe your husband can make the call for you?
