A member asked:

My siblings suffer from autoimune related sickness. i have had 2 miscarriages and unable to conceive, should i get tested for autoimune?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: Although your age with its increased risk of miscarriage (that has nothing to do with autoimmune disease) is the most likely source, it can't hurt to obtain a few blood tests that would rule out an immune cause for your repeated miscarriages. If you haven't already, please seek out an infertility specialist. For more info www.Askyourgynecologist.Org.
