Dr Harvey Kliman

from At a Total Loss Hosted by Katherine Lazar

I talk with Dr Harvey Kliman about his research and medical opinion when it comes to the placenta, pregnancy loss/stillbirth, & reoccurring pregnancies. He is a research Scientist in the Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology, and Reproductive Sciences at the Yale University of Medicine and the Director of the Reproductive and Placental Research Unit with the following Research Interests: Pregnancy Complications and losses, Autistic Disorder, Endometrium, and Infertility. Dr Kliman is the one who gave me some answers around Brody's death. He shed some light on what could have happened & how we prevent it from happening again. Without his placenta pathology report, I would still be going off of what my OB said, "he was perfect, this was freak, & it won't happen again." False. Here's what we discuss: His background and how he got here Developing the Estimated Placenta Volume measurements Pushback from doctors Causes of stillbirth Causes of a small placenta How to monitor if your placenta is small How do approach doctors about EPV C***d & the placenta And so much more...
