Recurrent Pregnancy Loss at 30 — Feeling Lost After 4 Natural Pregnancies & IVF Struggles

Hi all,

I’m 30F and have been TTC for the past 3 years. During this time, I’ve been pregnant 4 times — 2 chemical pregnancies, 1 blighted ovum, and most recently a missed miscarriage at 7 weeks. All 4 pregnancies were conceived naturally.

I’ve also undergone 3 egg retrievals. In the first cycle, we froze 3 day-3 embryos. The next two retrievals unfortunately did not progress to day 5/6 blastocysts.

After October 2025, we decided to take a break from treatments and focused on improving my overall health through an Ayurvedic approach and lifestyle changes. I conceived naturally again in March 2026, but sadly that pregnancy also ended in miscarriage recently.

At this point, I feel completely devastated and emotionally exhausted. I keep questioning why I’m facing recurrent losses and I’m honestly scared to try IVF or even natural conception again. My AMH is low (around 1.1), while my husband’s DFI is normal.

Has anyone here been through something similar? What changes, treatments, or approaches helped you?

Could this be mainly due to poor egg quality? Should I continue trying with my own eggs, or start considering donor eggs at this stage?

I feel very lost right now and unsure about what my next step should be. Any guidance or shared experiences would mean a lot.
