As a result, diagnostic tests usually commence after the second loss. On the other hand, late pregnancy loss is a rarer and unexpected event, prompting diagnostic tests to begin after the first occurrence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Causes of Recurrent Pregnancy Loss<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Genetic causes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Causes related to uterus<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Immunologic causes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Maternal causes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pregnancy-related causes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Infectious causes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Environmental<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Frequency of Recurrent Pregnancy Loss<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Clinically recognized pregnancy loss is a prevalent occurrence, affecting approximately 15\u201325% of pregnancies. The majority, around 80%, take place within the first trimester, with a significant number occurring before the 10-week mark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Around 2 percent of women undergo two consecutive pregnancy losses. However, a more distinct subset, comprising approximately 0.5 percent of women, experiences a third consecutive loss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Diagnosis and Treatment Recurrent Pregnancy Loss<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In the quest to identify the underlying causes of recurrent miscarriages, your healthcare provider will inquire about your medical history and previous pregnancies. A thorough physical examination, including a pelvic exam, may be conducted. Blood tests can be utilized to identify potential issues with the immune system, while genetic causes of recurrent miscarriages may be explored through testing. Additionally, imaging tests may be recommended to assess whether any uterine issues are contributing to recurrent miscarriages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Treatment is often directed towards the cause. Even in cases of unknown cause, treatment often results in success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can find detailed information on our diagnosis and treatment page.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Recurrent pregnancy loss is defined as two or more pregnancy losses.
