Fertility 101: Recurrent Pregnancy Loss (RPL)

Listen

Description

October is Pregnancy and Infant Loss and Awareness Month, and we want to shed light on the painful reality that is Recurrent Pregnancy Loss, sometimes shortened to RPL.  

RPL is a diagnosis when a patient experiences two or more miscarriages. And while this reality can be overwhelming, it's crucial to understand how common miscarriages are and not self-blame. 

On today's episode, Dr. Lora Shahine of Pacific Northwest Fertility answers those common questions associated with RPL, the differrent treatment options, and reminds us that no matter what, we're not broken.  

Guest: Lora Shahine, Pacific Northwest Fertility
