A member asked:

I had a miscarrage a week and a half ago when am i likely to be fertile again have stopped bleeding can i try again straight away?

Safer to wait: There is an increased risk of a recurrent miscarriage if you get pregnant again too soon. It is better to wait until you have had time to recover and heal. Most doctors would recommend at least 3-6 months. Best wishes.
