Hi,
Its unfortunate that you had a missed abortion.Its something that no one can predict or explain.But that doesnt mean you cant have a successful pregnancy again.If you had the D/C in feb then you can definitely start trying again. Start folic acid tablets daily. Diet should include lots of iron rich products and high protein.Dont stop the thyroid medication.

Hello
Thanks for your query.
After a missed miscarriage, which you had, you should ideally wait for atleast 3 - 6 months before planning your next pregnancy.
You should have thorough evaluation for cause of miscarriage.
Thyroid hormone imbalance should be corrected, and TSH should be less than 3.
Also, PCOD can lead to abortion, so try to control the symptoms.
Chromosomal testing, hormonal tests, blood group testing, screening for infectious diseases should be done.
Please consume folic acid tablets for 3 months .
Take care.
