I'm experiencing delayed periods almost every month, and I'm curious if this is normal. Also, could it affect my chances of conceiving in the future?

I'm really worried about my wife's scan; it was supposed to show a heartbeat at eight weeks, but there was nothing. We've already been through a miscarriage in 2019 and tried IUI and IVF in 2020 without success, along with fibroid removal surgery last December. She got pregnant naturally this time, but now there's no heartbeat. The report says the gestational sac has regular margins and a large yolk sac, but the fetal pole is there with no cardiac activity. It mentions a mean sac measurement around 19.73 and biometry CRL at 7.8 mm, with a single intrauterine nonviable gestation estimated at 6 weeks 5 days, and multiple uterine fibroids. I'm really anxious about whether there's any hope or if this is a miscarriage. Could you help us understand the situation better?
