GPs have an important part to play in addressing fertility challenges, but so many talented specialists on our show have reminded us of the unique position GPs are in when it comes to early detection, preliminary testing and being a solid support system.

Today we are discussing recurrent miscarriages – for patients desperate to start or expand their family, this can be one of the most physical and emotional challenges to deal with. A rollercoaster ride of feeling excited, anxious followed by grief and isolation. Recurrent miscarriages leave patient’s feeling confused and hopeless because even the most meticulous medical investigation often can’t provide clear answers as to why it keeps happening. 
Here to help us understand more is Dr Anthony Marren who is Medical Director at Genea’s Flagship clinic, in Sydney’s CBD. He’s trained in obstetrics and gynaecology, and is a certified sub specialist in reproductive endocrinology and infertility. He has an interest in recurrent pregnancy loss and implantation failure, and pre-implantation genetic testing.
