Answer from:
Unexplained subfertility, I always try to tell them that there is always a chance of conceiving. So, apart from treatment, I guess continuing to try is the only way that this can happen. Some couples get referred for IVF and while they are waiting find themselves pregnant in couples with an unexplained subfertility.
Answer from:
It’s not so much that it goes away but if you get pregnant on your own then it has gone, except it is not uncommon for us to meet couples who have tried for a little bit of time, got pregnant for the first time and then had unexplained sub-fertility so maybe they were just lucky the first time. Or similarly tried for a couple of years and conceived just before they were about to have treatment but then they struggle to get pregnant next time and there’s that problem whatever it was, is still there. So I would look at couples who have got secondary unexplained sub-fertility in the same way. It does help us to know that they’ve conceived as it takes out some of the unexplained ideas. If you have conceived, even indeed if that has been an early pregnancy loss, then we know that that mechanism has happened, we know that you can implant a pregnancy, we know that you can grow it to a level and although there is a lot about miscarriages and the links, most miscarriages relate to the embryo it’s self and the fact that it is not capable of making a healthy pregnancy. The earlier the loss the more likely that is so there are still positive things to come from that as it does tell us that there is not an individual thing about the woman that is stopping her from implanting the pregnancy but that is perhaps no longer unexplained so there might be other things, but we can get some positives form that.
