NK killer cells?

Can anyone recommend a clinic in London or surrounding areas that does NK Killer cells testing? (Blood)

After 4 miscarriages, 2 rounds of ivf and 3 years of infertility, all other tests have come back clear. Majority of the tests have been run through Tommy’s miscarriage clinic, so was really hoping they’d be able to give us some answers. I’m grateful that there’s ‘nothing’ but it doesn’t give me much confidence going forward that we won’t miscarry again.

This is a last resort so hoping we can find someone that is recommended and if any of you have had a successful outcome following NK testing and protocol?

Thank you! 🙏🏻

Hi there,

I’m on my 7th miscarriage and have just been tested for nk cells. I’m still waiting the results but I would highly recommend seeing them. The professors are amazing and give you such hope and positivity, it’s worth the journey just for that!

Good luck with it all!

Thank you! Sorry to hear that you’ve had so many losses 😢 I’m going to have the tests done next week actually, hoping that it will give us some direction 🤞🏼 Good luck with it and I really hope it helps give you some answers x

I’m so sorry to hear of your losses, I went through once can’t imagine how you must be feeling.

I had my NK cells tested over 2 years ago via blood test & they were slightly raised at 12% my fertility doctor said I couldn’t take prednisone TTC only after a positive pregnancy test which I’d take till 12weeks as well as progesterone pessaries. My fertility doctor preferred the biopsy test as opposed to the blood test so worth checking with your specialist which one they prefer.

Most ladies go to professor queby at Coventry. xoxo
