Tami Roman On Miscarriage: “We Were Prayerful, And We Still Have Faith”

basketball-wives-tami-romanBasketball Wives star Tami Roman’s world was turned upside down after the 45-year-old beauty revealed she suffered a miscarriage recently.

Roman, whose boyfriend is Reggie Youngblood, was 10 weeks pregnant and entering her 11th week when she lost their child.

“I am deeply saddened that after 10 1/2 weeks, we suffer this loss,” Roman said. “We knew this would be an uphill battle. We were up against the odds. I have a prolapsed uterus and am diabetic. I battle bouts of hypoglycemia due to my diabetes and my blood pressure continually ran high. We were prayerful, we had and still have faith. We are not giving up.”

A prolapsed uterus can be described in the following stages:

“I have not given up. I have a man who I love with every inch of my being and he wants a child, so we’re trying.”

Untreated Illnesses Such as Thyroid Problems (Both Hyper- and Hypo-Thyroidism) and Uncontrolled Diabetes)
Immunologic Disorders – In some cases, though, the embryo isn’t accepted by the woman’s body. Antiphospholipid antibodies—antibodies that attack one’s own tissue, including embryos—account for many miscarriages
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) – Even in women who don’t have diabetes, PCOS causes insulin resistance, which prevents the endometrial lining from maturing properly
Lifestyle (Cigarettes, Alcohol, Drugs, Environmental Toxins) – as with anything, a healthy lifestyle cuts down on unhealthy veggies
