What are the common causes of fetal demise?

Patient's question:

Pregnant for more than three months, recently discovered fetal demise during a check-up. Could you please ask the doctor about the common causes of this condition?

Doctor's answer:

The main reasons for embryonic arrest are mainly divided into four aspects. The second is the perinatal endocrine aspect, because during the early growth and development of the embryo, there are three important hormone levels required: estrogen, progesterone, and human chorionic gonadotropin. If the endogenous hormone levels of the mother are insufficient, it can lead to embryonic arrest. The third is the issue of perinatal autoimmune problems. If the body has certain antibodies, they can attack the growth and development of the embryo. The second is uterine problems. If the internal environment of the uterus is poor or if there is a malformation, the embryo will definitely not be able to grow and develop. The fifth is the issue of chromosomal problems. If a thorough examination is conducted, it needs to be checked in four aspects, and it must involve both partners.
