What tests are needed for a missed miscarriage? Could you please provide more details? Thank you

Patient's question:

Last year after my husband and I got married, I had two miscarriages. Recently, I went to the hospital for related tests. The results showed that the doctor said the high rate of abnormal sperm in my husband's semen was the issue and prescribed medication. After taking the medication, the abnormal rate of sperm decreased. However, when we went for a follow-up check-up, we were seen by a different doctor who said that a high rate of abnormal sperm is not related to miscarriage and advised me to come back for another test when I get my period. He mentioned that an immunotherapy would be needed, involving taking my husband's blood and administering it to me in three separate injections.

Doctor's answer:
