It took her 7 months to get pregnant again after the D&C and it ended in an early miscarriage at 5 weeks. Four months later she was pregnant again. It also ended in an early miscarriage at 5 weeks (so 3 miscarriages in a year). After the third miscarriage she saw an RE and her DH had a sperm analysis as well (he was perfectly fine). The RE ended up doing a hysteroscopy which is when they go in and visually look inside the uterus with a scope. The RE told my friend she had a ton of inflammation and adhesions, most likely from the D&C a year earlier! She put her on a strong course of antibiotics (doxycycline) and also manually broke up the adhesions during the hysteroscopy (which my friend said was extremely painful). The following cycle after the antibiotics and hysteroscopy, my friend got pregnant again. She is now 18 weeks pregnant with a girl and everything is going great! So yes, Asherman's was most likely causing all the issues. With all the inflammation and adhesions the embryo couldn't implant properly.
I'd highly suggest that you also see an RE. Ask them to test you for the MTHFR mutation as well which also causes repeat miscarriage and would mean you need to be on blood thinners to sustain a pregnancy. After my miscarriage last year I found out I am homozygous for MTHFR. I never had any previous problems with my pregnancies, but my doctor said I'd need to start baby aspirin asap if I ever get pregnant again. Others have told me that I need to be on baby aspirin before then because it is necessary to thin the blood to allow for implantation to even occur. I am on baby aspirin 3 days a week now (daily was causing bruising).
