Hie ladies i've jst failed my 2nd IVF cycle.In 2012 when i had all my initial screening tests i was diagnosed to be a carrier of Streptococcus bacteria....they said it lives harmlessly in the vagina and bowels.Yesterday i was at work and read that it can cause early misscarriages which i have had in the past..

Has anyone else has this? Am starting to thing it may be the reason for my failed implantation.

I've been told I'm a carrier. You can buy kits to test for strep b. I had to do the test privately when I was pregnant because nhs don't take this seriously enough to test us. Push this with your clinic and see if they will test you xx
