BBC - Radio 4 - Woman's Hour - Steroid treatment for recurrent miscarriage

A controversial treatment for recurrent miscarriage claims an 86% success rate but hasn't been clinically tested yet. Should it be offered to women before going through clinical trials?

Sharmini Selvarajah talks to Gillian Strachan who was treated successfully for recurrent miscarriages with steroids.

To discuss the issues, Jenni is joined by Hassan Shehata who administers steroid treatment and Diana Hamilton-Fairley, Consultant Obstetrician and Gynaecologist at Guys and St Thomas' Hospital in London who opposes it.
